Stars laying invisible eggs!

I have a problem with my stars that no one seems to be able to answer...

My two females have been copulated by my male and now for a few months they do what female torts do after being impregnated....they pace around for days and finally start digging for a couple of hours,quite deep,and then burry it completely after and ...NO EGGS!!!

They did that 3 times each now! every month like a real clutch ...but nothing!

I don't think it's eggbinding because they burry after and also they eat,are active and everything the next day...

What could it be?

If the males were not fertiles wouldn't the females just lay anyways but infertiles eggs?

Could it be that they are possibly not from the same eco-type?



I need an Idea on how I could change all that?

Thanks a lot!!



Yannick
