She looks young. How old is she? How much are you feeding her and what's her basking temps?

 

[copten]

she's about 6 months old...she eats about 10-15 crickets a day. and ill say about 92 degrees to 96. i only have the powersun no other heating source...what do u think. i was tolled thats good enought.

those are high temps. When you feed alot and keep them warmer, they are more likely to produce eggs. 6 months is young. I would cut back on her food a bit. Her cage temp should be in the low to mid 70's and her basking should be in the low 80's. is the powersun produce UVB?

 

[copten]

yes it does... how many crickets u suggest? and would u know how many time a year do they produce eggs?

 

[carol5208]

I do not have a female but I have read on here where they can lay 3 or 4 clutches in a years time. Keeping the temps low and cutting back on their food can help reduce egg production. What size crickets are you feeding? Definitely lower the temps for sure.

 

[copten]

Feeding large crickets. and yea temps actually 84 right now.
