Thanks again kinyonga.
I will gladly keep you posted. She has kind of acting different today and did not seem very well. Yesterday I also noticed that her eyes were both closed and she was hugging the branch she was on. I'm not sure if she was sleeping or just resting her eyes, but when I opened the cage to spray water, she opened them right away and walked away from me. She has been eating, about 12 mealworms over the last couple of days.
I haven't seen her be active at all in the last couple of days. She has just been sitting on the branch near her basking light and basking or sitting higher away from the light. There was a point where I saw a bright green/white looking spot on her body about the size of a penny, while the rest of her body was brownish. This was where the basking light was on her, I thought maybe she had burned herself but when she moved away from the light, the colour went back to brownish. I did notice her drinking a couple times too after I sprayed.
So I guess the behaviour doesn't seem too strange, but I'll definitly keep a watch on her. I think she's just very exhausted from digging for almost 5 days. I haven't seen her go back into the pot since the time I mentioned before, so tonight I will go digging myself for the eggs and see what we have.
Thanks for all the help through this, and I will definitly keep you posted.
