Just Wondering

Hey there guys. So,I went to clean out my baby's water dish last night and I found an egg in it . It is her first one and I was wondering if anyone knew if she could possibly have more because she is still trying to dig everywhere. Also is there anything I could be doing to make her more comfortable during this time for her? Oh yeah, how often could she lay eggs?

Re: Just Wondering

You have to make her an egg laying place. Like a tupperware full of dirt so that she can dig. I have zero experience in this situation, but that is what I read somewhere. I'm just passing on what I read for the simple fact that you needed help quick. Just make her that egg laying area, and make sure she has plenty food and water and the humidity is perfect.



Hope that helps just the slightest bit!

Re: Just Wondering

There will be more eggs,... several more! And if she doesn't lay them soon you need to have a vet look at her to make sure that she is not egg bound!
Provide a nesting box with soil in it to lay.
You need to increase the calcium supplements to offset what is being used for the eggs.

Re: Just Wondering

Put them in the freezer over night and then toss them. This insures that none of them will survive if indeed they were somehow fertile.
