A few days ago I noticed my veiled (she's about 5-7mo old) had been looking bloated/fat and has been digging at the bottom of the cage.
She does not look or act unhealthy, she climbs fine.
However, yesterday I noticed she hadn't eaten any of her 3 crickets and was still digging.
I started looking up conditions and saw that she might be gravid, so I got a place for her to try to lay her eggs set up. I put her in and she crawled around for a while but then got really mad, it was about 9 o'clock so I put her back and she went straight to sleep.
Today I noticed she was still acting weird. I called a vet and he said first off to check/test if her temperature was off. The temperature is fine and I adjusted things a little bit. She is still acting strange but I did see her eat something (It might have been a barkchip or a cricket!!!). I just now put her back into her sand pen to see if she wants to attempt to lay her eggs.
I'm not sure if she is gravid though, I don't see ANY sign of eggs nor feel any besides the bloated tummy. Help!!!
