Quick Question

okay my female laid 2 eggs 2 days apart, now its been 4 days since the last egg and she hasn't laid any more. She is incubating the two and just started that yesterday. Is 2 in a clutch normal or could she be eggbound? She is acting normal, granted I only check on her once a day or so, she had big poo's yesterday but no more eggs.

I suppose she could be done laying, or just having a delay between eggs, but it would probably be a good idea to check on her more than once a day. Tap on the box so she comes out, and check to make sure she can move around normally without any problems. If she can't, you may need to call a vet. I hope it turns out to be nothing.

Yay! She laid the third egg today!! How often do you check on them usually? I've only been doing once or twice a day because I'm afraid I make her nervous. Ahh this is tough work, I worry about her but don't want to bother her or stress her out! Thanks

Cehck once in the morning and once at night, unless there is a problem, when you need to check on a more regular basis.

 

From the sounds of things, twice a day is fine for you.
