hi
my clarice started 3 days ago to go in the lay bin. she dug a big hole and has spent most of the last 3 days in it except to come up to bask she has been in it backwards but she she has not covered the hole at all.
i have the cage covered and peeked in
i am trying to leave her alone just misted from outside the screen when she first wakes up and the lights and heat go on so she can drink if she wants haven't put food in 3 days she didn't touch the worms in there since day before she started to dig. so today is day 3 she back in her hole
so how long is too long to wait it out idk if she doesn't like the hole it isn't ready yet
any advise it great btw the water catch bin is gone since day 1

She is digging the test hole,when she is ready to lay she will cover the holes,just let her do her thing,the egg should come soon.
