Einstina decided to nest for the 3rd time but 10 days earlier than normal. This makes it 18 eggs since September. She usually nests 4 or 5 times per season so let's see if she breaks her record of 19 this time.
Yes, this is the 3rd time this year and yes, it is the 1st hatchling I got from you and now she is making her own hatchlings. She started when she was 6 years old and 9" SCL. Her first time she laid eggs two of them hatched and I was surprised that any of them did. All I do is follow directions that came with her also.
Here's a pic of her right after she finished laying her 1st 6 eggs in September this year, she's a dirty from digging and she was actually still trying to cover up the eggs when I put her on the wagon to take a pic. I think she was still in a trance, take a look at her eye.
