I know someone with a pair of Egyptians that she believes the female has eggs. Can anyone have experience with them. I have only experience with Mali's and Nigerians.

I have bred the Egyptians several times. Their courtship and mating behaviours were a bit different than other uro species but I never did anything different for the laying and incubation. Just BIGGER and DEEPER! Those girls can dig like a prarie dog when they want to lay.

Lindsay is certainly one of the uro experts.
A gravid female Egyptian can be a little aggressive as well, keep her by herself, and as Lindsay said give her plenty of substrate to dig in!
I had a sucessful hatch last year using perlite as a incubating medium.
Good luck.
