Hello all. I just had a few questions about new eggs. I am fairly certain that my female is pregnant. I was wondering how long it takes for her to lay the eggs after being impregnanted. I was also wondering if there was something that i should do that would facilitate the egg laying process for her. Also, are therea ny easy ways to make an incubator? Just wondering...Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks ~ Jenn

She'll carry the eggs for up to 2 weeks. For laying purposes you should have a humid hide. I was informed earlier that using a margarine container with peat moss is a good idea.

Incubators can be made fairly cheap but you may as well just buy one. I'd suggest a hovabator from Big Apple Herp. They cost $45 US and all you need to do is calibrate the temp and add eggs and water.
