Well, my girl has gone off food for a while now, and she's looking kinda bloated. She has still been as active as usual, if not more, and is not showing any obvious signs of RI, however I've bumped up her temp and humidity just to be on the safe side.



Now her enclosure is entirely water on the bottom, so right now she'll have nothing to lay her eggs in when the time comes, so I need some suggestions as to what I can do for nesting. I've been thinking about putting in either an empty ice cream pail or a big tupperware container full of either eco-earth type stuff, or a sandy soil mix, but I'm looking for some first hand experience so I know what's best.



I need to get this taken care of right away as she's been like this for a couple weeks and I'm concerned about her becoming eggbound.



Thanks.
