Ackie breeding question

[Bahamut]

Does anyone out there know the average time between observed copulation and egg deposition for yellow ackies. We have gotten several clutches so far, but where I work it is hard to observe them closely enough to determine these numbers. Please help us fine tune our program.

The gestation period for ackies is 6-8 weeks after copulation. Incubation, the tempreture should be set at 87-89 degrees. The incubation period lasts almost 4 months.

Sorry it took me so long to reply, I have been busy getting ready for the Earth Day celebration at my university. Thank you for your input. Our incubation time has been averaging 110 days at 87 degrees F.
