my large female laid 4 eggs on the 18th, I am not sure how long she had been digging but I watched her from 9:30 till 11:35pm, by which time she had moved far enough from the nest to remove the eggs but was still tamping the ground down, she did the little tamping dance for about an hour, talk about picky.
if you dont feel the eggs anymore she likely laid them already, it's not uncommon for nests to go unwitnessed, every year posts show up from keepers about suprise hatchlings in an enclosure.
