My female chuckwalla has laid eggs for three years in a row and I have incubated and hatched them each year. This year she was gravid and I could clearly feel the eggs, but it appears that she lost weight but never laid the eggs. She lost 40 grams in a week and that has been the same amount of weight she has lost from laying the eggs in the past. She is very thin and baggy and she looks like she laid the eggs but they are definitely not in the cage. My only guess is she absorbed the eggs somehow (is this possible?) or maybe the male ate them (I really didn’t think that was possible). I was wondering if anyone in the forum can help me out as to what happened.
