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

Hens lay fertilized eggs mating and hens lay unfertilized egs without mating my question is do they just lay eggs whenever they want to or they need to eat some kind of chicken laying feed to lay eggs?

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 .
