My girl dropped one slug last night before I went to bed and nothing the rest of the night or all day today.Should I be worried or wait it out and see what happens.

They sometimes lay the slugs a day or two before the "good ones".

I had the same exact thing happen with my 4 year old "greenish blonde" suboc. She laid an infertile egg on a friday night. Then Saturday early laid two more, then a good egg, then a couple more bad ones and another good egg into Sunday. So I wouldn't worry at all. I had a gray band that used to lay one or two bad eggs about 4-5 days post-shed and then a nice clutch of fertile eggs (about 6-7 more) a few days later, every year for the three years I bred her.

I'm starting to get really bummed out.So far 4 slugs.No good eggs.Nothing over night,and she still has more in her.
I'm starting to think maybe my male was not mature enough?Though he is two years old.He is half the size of the female.I just hope she is not bound.
