Confused about age

I was told my female was about 3-4 months of age. BUT I'm starting to thing they might be wrong. She has a brown color with yellow right now and has been like that since Sat. Can't really take her out right now to get a pic since she goes back to her greenish teal color on my hand. She gets really relaxed on my hand. She's all puffed up too. I'll try to get a good pic of her real quick and post it.
 
here she is i know pics are blurry

She looks a lot older than that and gravid as well. You need to set up a lay bin for her pronto. You can search what to use in the search tool. I believe it's at least 12 by 12 with half play sand and half coconut husk moistened but you would have to double check.
 
I concur. she does appear to be gravid.

You need a bucket, that is deep enough to put at least 12 inches deep worth of washed playsand in.

She will need total privacy, so you cant watch her, or let her see you are watching, because we all do it. ;)

the sand needs to be wet enough to hold a shape when molded, but not too wet that it turns into a puddle.

or too dry that a tunnel would collapse.
 
Well I went in there this morning and Angel was her teal green color with yellow. No more brown. Guess it might be shed. But heading to Lowes and picking up some playsand just in case =)
 
females who have eggs dont always stay the gravid colors.
and sometimes, they dont really show them at all.

once a female hits the 6 month age mark, its best to keep a laying bin in there all the time.
 
Nothing in egg laying bin!

I know its bee like a week on this update. But I checked this evening since Angel was her normal color and skinner. There was nothing in the bin. I did change her cage around the other day and put in a bigger live plant and thinking it lightened the mood. She also got to see her future boyfriend and since then shes been greener. Still not sure about age.
 
my guess whould be around six or seven month mark and showing gravid keep a bin in there for sure 5 gallon bucket is what i use with potting soil minimum 12 inch deep inside her encloser
 
Here's a updated pic of Angel. She's starting to shed. So whatcha all think?
