question about her laying eggs??

[mathew]

Ok my veiled has laid eggs twice before. I tried to put a bin in her enclosure but she doesn't care about it. She treats it like the plague. She would rather dig up her enclosure and bury them in there. I should mention its huge 56x36x30 fully planted. It usually wouldn't be a problem but now she is gravid. I just want this to be as successful as possible. Do I just take her out and just put her in a bucket? If I let her lay them in the cage the eggs would be on there own? It's big and where she decided to bury her eggs the substrate is around 12"-18". Any advice would be appreciated. I'll het a pic of the enclosure on here

if she wants to bury them in the cage, let her.
you can just go in and dig up the eggs when shes done.

you can try the bucket method, but its hard to time when a female truly needs to lay, so this can be a problem.

Ok one more question. I haven't ever dug up her eggs out of the enclosure. Should I dig up the old eggs before she lays this time? Or do you think they have decomposed by now?
