Diamonds, how long at most, betwen pre-laying shed and laying eggs

[Hbruno]

to the senior keepers of diamonds, which can be the longest time between, pre-laying shed and laying eggs with Diamonds ? I have two femalles, the first has layed after 21 days, the second is comming soon, after 31 days
pre lay sheding.

around 6 weeks..............obviously the lower the temps the longer the gestation though, so could even go 45 days.......

Thank you, for this information. In France, we haven't the same parameters as in Australia. Have You had, female diamonds which laid without having a pre layng shed ? I have a third female, which is full to explode, but which doesn't have a pre laying shed. May it been, because that she caught a respiratory infection, and because I have make antibiotique injections ?

I've never had a female of any species deposit eggs without a pre-lay..............It's possible her shed was rolled up in the substrate (paper) and you have thrown it out without recording it???? (or other similar instance).........cheers and all the best
