I have had a couple of leopards in the past lay 3 eggs all at once. Just this season I have had a leopard who I thought was egg bound. We soaked her several times a day for three days and on the fourth day she laid 3 eggs. Two of the eggs were somewhat fused together and it looked like a huge peanut. None of the eggs were fertile. Would it be possible to see the picture Neil?
