She needs a lay bin. Easiest way is to take a big rubbermaid and pile moist dirt 10-15 inches deep on a slope on one side. You can put food and water in their but chances are they'll get burried and make a mess, a lot of females won't eat during the last few days of gestation time anyway. She does need her heat lamp though, point it at the dirt pile. Might want to give her a good soak before and afterwards also. Good luck and congratulations.
