well i figured out how to use my webcam, so i was able to take a few pictures of Lizzy. i took them because, i wanted to know if she looks like shed be laying eggs in a week or so. thats abou the time im expecting her to do so. she put on som size, and im sure if im supposed be able to feel eggs or not ( someone told me i wasnt), but she has kinda stopped eating, and seems a little more active then normal. im not sure what her behaviors is going to be like? other than digging alot and she isnt doing that, so... here are some pictures. she poses quite well by the way!! shes not camera shy!!

How long has she been gravid? Because in this picture she doesn't look it to me. In my experiance a week or two before they lay you can see the eggs bulging from their sides. She looks really healthy though great job on that!

yeah she is!!! ive had her the longest and shes never given me problems!! a good eater and everthing. shee became gravid the first week of june. she was bread the week. so.... june 4th i beleive. and she got her colors. their really pretty!!

So she's been gravid for about two weeks. She still has some time then before she lays. She will definitely start digging as she gets closer to the day.

yeah i guess so. she was breed may 3rd, and i calculated about 24 days, and i got the 25th to the 27th. however i think im setting my own deadlines. maybe i should let nature take its course, and hopefully ill get some eggs. ill watch her bahavior and her size, thats the best indicator of her condition. thanks for the help everyone...
