geckobill2112 Dec 17, 2004 04:42 PM

I have an tremper albino that seems to be egg bound. It is her first time being gravid what can i do to help her along? She is well above the breeding size before she was introduced to the male she was 58g.
Thanks for your help

Soak her in warm water and take her to the vet!

Hi- Consulting a vet is never a bad idea but I was wondering how long it has been since she was bred?
Is she eating and acting normally?
These guys obviously have their own time/schedule on when to lay those eggs and it can be really scary when it seems that she should have laid and doesn't.
I recently acquired a female that came to me gravid (her first time also) and just when I was really starting to wonder if I should call my vet- she laid her eggs.
But she was acting and eating normally up until then so I wasn't overly concerned.
.Good Luck with her
