egg laying sites

i've noticed that one of my female bearded pygmies was getting very plump and then one day skinny, so i'm hoping that she laid a clutch some where in the terrarium. i have plants and leaf litter over the 1-3 inch layer of coco fir substrate. how do you find where she laid? i've made the floor as natural as i could with little hills and valleys so its not like i can just find a disturbance over a clean area. or should i just hope for the best and wait for them to hatch and remove the babies as needed.

I just let them hatch in the enclosure.
So far so good ... the adults will not eat them.
The only fear would be that crickets could do them harm, the babies usually climb up fairly high after hatching and are easy to spot.

how long will they take to hatch?

60 days or so from what i've gathered
