My male Ki ( from crazyeyeschams ) and my female Glinda ( from Hunter lineage FLchams ) are mated. She was full of eggs you could see just by her size.
Laying bin has about 6" of organic playsand/ soil mix. I have kept it damp but not wet.
I also have a small plant growing in it and covered the top with faux vines to give privacy. Covered her cage door as well so she would not be distracted.
She had dug about 4 or 5 test holes over the past 1.5 weeks so I knew she was close. Never digging all the way to the bottom however.
Well since yesterday she has been laying but not in the bin. She has been just sitting in the plant and dropping eggs everywhere.
It has been a reptile Easter egg hunt as I don't want them to dry out. I have immediately retrieved any that I saw and put them in a container with moist hatchrite substrate. I have attached the photo of the eggs. I am sure most are fine. They are nice and white and still moist when I got them. A few had a dent so I don't know if that means they will not survive.
Anyway the question is
Why did she choose not to use this laying bin?
Has anyone else experienced this?
