Well pleased to say just spoke to Rick on MSN and the eggs have been layed! He is busy sorting them out as we speak. Very well done Rick, I am pretty excited about this one myself. Great to see someone dispelling all the myths.
Can`t wait to see the egg pics Rick, and will be keeping my fingers well and truly crossed for a successful hatch for you!

Thank you everyone.
Well Mildred meller has done it!
93 eggs she laid, bless her!
Six eggs were dented, so I have put them in a seperate container with some extra moist vermiculite.
So at the moment 86 good eggs.
Mildred only looks a tiny bit thinner
She is having a laze on one of the top viv branches drinking from the water dripper tube now. Well done Mildred!

Cheers Jim; average size clutch is approx: 80. So this was a good size clutch but not to far from the average.
