I'll let you know sometime soon. I caught a gravid girl and let her drop her eggs, fattened her back up and released her. I was actually googling the incubation period myself. she laid 13 eggs on 6/2/12. Two of them appear infertile when candling them but they've not started molding or looking bad on the outside so I'm leaving them alone. I know most North American, egg laying colubrids (ratsnakes, king snakes, corns) take roughly 60 days at 78°-80°. That's by no means written in stone so please don't dissect and criticize the vague statements that I've made. I know eastern hognose (heterodon platirhinos) go through a MUCH shorter incubation period. their eggs are almost translucent and very thin shelled as apposed to the vast majority of oviviparous snakes around the area. well....... just wanted to say that I'd post my findings once mine start hatching. I've incubated sceloporus eggs a dozen times but never paid attention to timelines lol. later
For seagulls, the time from conception to laying an egg typically takes about 3 to 4 weeks. After mating, the female will develop the eggs within her body before laying them. Once the eggs are laid, they usually undergo an incubation period of about 3 weeks before hatching.
The osprey typically mates for life. It usually lays two to four eggs within a month. It typically takes about five weeks for the osprey's eggs to hatch.
The hen will continue to lay fertilized eggs for up to 10 days after the last mating.
yes, what can i do?
When everything is perfect from them ..ie: weather , temp ... amount of daylight .., they will lay by themselves. In the winter you can help them along by adding light to mimic spring or summer daylight hours. Laying crumbles or laying pellets will help provide the nutrients they need to lay , but even without it , as long as everything else is right, they will lay .
18-21 days
It depends what animal it is.

Depending on the species, egg-laying occurs anywhere from three to eight weeks after mating. The American crocodile lays eggs approximately three weeks after fertilization; Nile crocodiles lay eggs about eight weeks after fertilization; Saltwater crocodiles lay eggs four to six weeks after fertilization.
30 days
It takes around 60 days from conception to laying eggs.
Tetrapod's are the group of animals that lay eggs. Animals have been laying eggs for a long time. Snails, fish, and many other animals lay eggs from which their young hatch.
