Late laying of an egg

My female laid eggs about 3 weeks ago, when I removed her from the nesting box, she was fine, her vent area was no enlarged and there appeared to be no lumps.

I fed her 3 days ago, she is eating like a horse, and yesterday I noticed an egg shape lump near her tail. rang the vet to make an appointment for this morning, however when I got home this morning from work, she past the egg and a pile of pooh over night

Has anyone heard of similar? I will be keeping a very close eye on her for the next few weeks

this has happened a few time with my corns, luckly the eggs have always passed on their own just like yours has.

That is good then, she seems fine, just my first attempt at breeding and it scared the pants off me

just make sure there are no more eggs in there.

What was it you bred ?

The two corns I bought from Bribrian 2 years ago (see [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] )

Fantastic project Sean, make sure to let us know how the babies get along when they hatch.

I will do, will put some ads in the for sale if I get any :)

Hope it all works out for you Sean , should make for some great hatchlings .

Glad she passed the egg.
Good luck with the hatchlings.

Thanks lads, so am I, she is a lovely natured female and looking forward to a few hatchlings. First attempt so praying hard :)

I have never had this happen but have heard of it. Did she ever pass more eggs and how did you get on with the clutch? I wouldn't mind a sunspot or two

She past only the one egg and is wolfing down her mice :) Clutch is going fine, have 7 of the 9 feeding regular every week, just waiting on a shed before I advertise them :)

That's great news! Well if there are some sunspots drop me a PM
