21 is the official date, but if she sits very very tight and keeps them very warm they can be a day earlier or if the temp drops too much a day or two later
But plan for 21 days and they won;t be far awayComment

Sitting tight, it's like a bleeding furnace in there, we put her on a straw nest as she was digging to the bottom of the woodchip onto bare plastic and I felt that coolness from underneath is not good so she's sitting on a nest with a thick wad of straw under and around her and she's wedged herself in... Until we kick her out for a poo that is..
