gravid question for 9 month veiled

[VeiledOwner87]

is it true that if a female doesnt mate when she is receptive, she will soon then become gravid with infertle eggs anyways?

yes it is. they develop eggs even if not bred. so always have a laying bin in the bottom when you notice signs of being gravid.

She may or may not produce infertile eggs...it depends to some extent on the husbandry. If you control her diet she may not....or at least the clutches should be smaller...

i feed her every other day at this age, dusted plain calcium every feeding. i give her 7-8 feeders at a feeding as well. the occasiobal silk, hornworm, wax and meal worms. but primary crickets and supers, maybe 4-5 crickets, 1-2 supers. she does get a treat of the above stated worms at least once or twice a week for extra protein, fat or calcium.
