You should let her be so that she can do her job. She will tell you when she is done when she starts packing the soil back on the eggs.
how do i know she is doing it she is in her whole and she has her eyes closed and is moving up and dow every 2 min do u think she is deff laying
Sounds like that is exactly what she is doing. They get pretty tired during the whole process and sorta "wiggle" the eggs out. She will start covering the whole and packing dirt back around them when she is done. Just be sure to be patient and let her do her thing before you remove the eggs. Sometimes they can get a little upset at their nest being wrecked. Also... be sure to give her a BIG fat pinky as a reward tomorrow!!
A nice warm bath when she is done. Laying eggs is rough stuff. Mine was VERY thirsty and drank and drank. She normally won't drink in the bath but sure did after all that work.
Make sure she has lots of fresh calcium rich veggies and anything her lil heart desires.
She gave up a bunch of calcium to make those eggs...
