Laying eggs

[rminnis]

My girl is finally down digging in her bin today.

She (Edith) has been testy lately she was given to me after spending the first 7-8 months of her life with very poor husbandry she is lucky she came to me when she did because now she has everything she needs; she is currently in her laying bin. I hope she doesnt have any problems :S She has not been bred but I do have a male with her in the same room but they are divided and cannot see each other unless i allow it.

Glad to say she has laid and is now back up happy eating and drinking the whole process started early morning yesterday and she actually spent the night down in the hole then she covered it up and was back up basking today and had eaten.

Isnt that a beautiful egg laying thing happened n u totally witnessed it! Congrats!!

Yeah it was amazing she was getting so big I gave her a couple of days of privacy and wrapped her laying bin in some greenery from a pothos vine and resprayed the sand and gave her a good sized starter hole and first thing in the morning she was working away. Is there any reason I should leave the laying bin in her enclosure now that she has clearly returned to normal size and has covered her hole.? I want to look at the eggs and make sure they are not fertile.

Feel free to dig out those white jelly bean,where are u planning to keep them ?would u like them to be fertile or not fertile?
U can take the bin out for now if u wish to do so.

She never was bred (intentionally) a male did crawl from my free roam area and somehow managed to slip into her cage and got pretty close to her for a short period of time before I found out and took him out so I wanted to get everyones opinions.
