| maybe shes just puting it off like house work lol, mind u if shes fartin out 2 pups at once like u thought u saw that must beat it out of u a bit and she might be taking breaks, there been any loud banging or drums or anything like that that could frighten her at all cause if she gets startled she stops birthing till she reckons its safe then resumes | |

| well my het female took about 2-3 days and in total she had 42 babies. So I take it more in the brood, the more time it takes for them all to come out. | |

| i assume there is a limit to how many s'lings her ovariuterus can accomodate but how well fed she is does have an effect it means she is less likely to reabsorb an embryo because of hunger, but temperature, stress levels etc are also crucial factors in how well the brood develops and of course after birth u have to get all this right if u want the s'lings to survive | |

| yeah like what connie n mordax said you should leave the tank alone as much as possible, i know it sounds obvious lol but thats what killed my first brood of emperors cause i kept poking my head in the tank every day, daft i know lol but i also think that they may have been under developed and hte mother maybe be quite old | |
