During a jury trial, absolutely not. The only time I've ever heard a judge directly question a witness was during a non-jury trial when they wanted to elicit specific information about a complicated subjet that the witness had already tesitified to under direct and cross. Anything else, such as suggested in the question, would be MOST improper and result in a mis-trial.

What is unusual about how long it takes the jury to reach a verdict is the verdict predictable or not?

The unusual aspect about the duration of the jury's deliberation can vary based on the complexity of the case and the evidence presented. In some instances, a quick verdict may suggest a clear consensus, while a long deliberation could indicate disagreements among jurors or a thorough review of the evidence. The predictability of the verdict depends on various factors like the strength of the case presented by both sides and how jurors interpret and apply the law to the evidence.
