my female, blue quite obviously has eggs in her tummy and hasn't eaten in days. she won't eat anything i give her and i have had a good laying bin with moist dirt and starter tunnels in her cage for over a week. i am beyond concerned and i need some help on how to get her to lay. yes her humidity and temp are where they should be. she had been walking down into the dirt and under the bin and looking on the floor but won't dig. she will just go back up to the top and i tried putting her in her lay box with it covered for a hour i looked in the box and she was just not doing anything and no signs of even digging. i am beginning to worry whether or not she is eggbound and i need to do something to save my girl. thanks and anything helps
 
If you are worried about her, I would honestly take her to the vet, I can't tell you whether she actually needs one because I have yet to deal with a laying. A vet can give her a shot of oxytocin and with an xray see how close she is to actually needing to lay. Keep us updated and good luck with her.
