will she lay if male in there too?

ajfreptiles Jan 09, 2011 08:08 PM

I have 2 females and a male together and wondering if the one female will lay eggs anyway even if in with male and another female? She shed and had that amazing look I have only heard about...lol...I have never had any balls actually lay....I do get alot of breeding but no eggs...I think I figured out what else I was doing wrong so now I should see eggs...but tell me your thoughts about her laying.

Andy,

Yes the female should lay her eggs even with the 2 males with her. I was watching a video the other day taken in Africa, where they found a female with a clutch of eggs and there were 2 males found in the same hole where they found the female and eggs.

If you call me at 408.981.6694 I can help you through the process.

I hope the gold blush mojaves are doing well.

Good luck

A couple years ago, I had a pair of het albinos together! I was frustrated cause I never saw them copulate, so I left them alone for awhile! One day I went in to water them and to my surprise, in the hide box, was the female on a clutch of eggs w/the male on top of her! Never saw them copulate, never saw her ovulate!
