I have never had this happen personally, although many years ago when i was breeding Blue Tongue Skinks i had a mom that killed her babies just after they were born?? (live birth of course)

You had mentioned that the eggs were not stuck together and scattered aroung the lay box, which leads me to believe that they may have been infertile.. Which may also be why she ate them after she layed.

Either way i am sorry it did not work out for you with this clutch!
