Question Pre-lay shed

Jeff,
Congrats! I want one or two!! At least!!!

But first I have a Q for u,...

Is pre-lay ecdysis a hard and fast rule? How often do drys by-pass the pre-oviposition ecdysis, and deposit eggs anyway? If they do, what could be some probable causes, and effects of oviposition without going through a cycle of ecdysis first? And what about those which may complete ecdysis early on, during the first stages of gestation, instead of just prior to oviposition? Or do these types of things ever happen?

I say again,...IWANTONEORTWOATLEAST!!! Please?
T.
P.S. Did you know that the spell checker here does not recognize the word "ecdysis", or the word "oviposition"? Hmmm,...
