Me again! My female is due to lay eggs at anytime now.

I have a Waterlandtub with the land area in sand. Will I clearly be able to see where she has layed her eggs? I have read that she will dig a 2" hole and lay 4 -6 eggs that are about 32 MM in size. I have also been told that I should remove them ASAP and set up an incubator with vermiculite in a plastic cup.

I would appreciate your comments. I want to do this right!
