GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

How many eggs does a pregnant dragon lay on average? Is the last dragon living male or female? If female, is it possible that it was impregnated in an off-camera scene? If there was any need to show it, couldn't the next episode contain a scene where the dragon flies out of its nest and the camera pans down to show a dozen eggs sitting there?

I think the best way to answer the dragon egg question is to view the 3 eggs Dany got as being a set from a single dragon. So, probably 1-5

Anyone remember when the night King’s mass Rez occurred? I’m not going back to watch it some of those corpses shown at the mass funeral should have exploded when Arya knifed the NK right? I don’t think everyone should have poofed but weren’t some of the main characters shown coming back as zombies?

Yes, I'd actually been guessing that Viserion, Rhaegal, and Drogon were clutch mates. If Drogon was secretly female (and sexually mature at that) I would have assumed that Viserion and Rhaegal would be disinclined to breed with her, but maybe mimicking the behavior of their dragons was how the tradition of incest initially took root in House Targaryen, and maybe that, just as much as magic receding from the world, was responsible for the decline of their 'domesticated' dragons. So it wouldn't be completely surprising for the writers to show us a nest of dragon eggs at some point in the remaining two episodes.

This is just wild speculation about GRRM's world building but since I've taken the time to think about it this morning I've also come to suspect that the original three eggs were never 'petrified' but rather that the ambient level of magic in the world had dropped too low for them to hatch without the aid of Daenerys' suicide pyre. That's more relevant to the books though, which are unlikely to ever be finished at this point.

Elissa Farman

Elissa Farman was a noblewoman of House Farman and the daughter of Lord Marq Farman during the reign of King Jaehaerys I Targaryen.[3]

In 54 AC, Elissa petitioned Rhaena to leave once more. Rhaena permitted her request stone-faced, while Aerea wept for Elissa. Neither Targaryen princess knew of Elissa's destination, and she discreetly stole three dragon eggs from Dreamfyre's clutch. She departed for Driftmark, where she took ship to Pentos and made her way overland to Braavos under the name Alys Westhill and secured an audience with the Sealord of Braavos, selling him the eggs. With the gold, Elissa financed the building of her carrack, the Sun Chaser.[1] She set sail with a word of caution from the Sealord, due to the scandal that the theft of the dragon eggs had caused the Targaryens.[7] Androw fell into depression at Dragonstone, as Elissa had been his closest friend.[1] Septon Barth, the Hand of the King to Jaehaerys I Targaryen, was sent to Braavos to investigate the missing dragon eggs. The Sealord denied having them, but agreed to reduce the Iron Throne's debts to the Iron Bank of Braavos.[7]
