Sounds pretty prepared!!

Do you have boiling water? I don't know what it's for but they always have boiling water in the movies when a woman goes into labor. Actually, it sounds like you are well prepared. Good luck! None of mine even look gravid yet.

Thanks! I sure hope i am. Even with all the stuff, i feel I'm still not COMPLETELY prepared for this...Kinda like becoming a "Dad" ya know. You Know you've done everything that is humanly possible to prepare for the event...but then life intervenes and there is ALWAYS something that happens that you wern't prepared for. Stay Away Murphy...Just Stay Away!!

question:

Ok, she is safely tucked away in her egg laying chamber (1 gallon size sherbert tub...Yum!). about 3-4 inches of Orchid moss...dampened..not wet...She has dug to the bottom...if she lays the eggs on the BOTTOM of the tub...will the eggs stick to the plastic tub??? i'm prepaired to cut them out with plastic still attached to the egg mass...if this happens....
