ok so my puget and maritime are gravid, about when do they shed and how long after the shed about does she give birth?

ill post pics of the puget soon, the maritime is harder to tell shes gravid but from having her a while ive noticed shes gotten fatter around the tail area and has gained some grams

normal gestation period is 90-120 days. they generally shed about a week before birth....but can shed more than once during the gestation period....My red sider went pretty much the whole 120 days last summer, shed once, waited about 3 weeks and she shed again, then had her babies next week. look forward to the photos!!

well, I'll say around 25-20....easterns have smaller babies and larger litters.
