I she refused food, she could lay any time. Mine layed eggs in November and they hatched about three weeks ago. My female, Bunny started twitching alot before she layed. You need to change the substrate in the cage to damp peet moss. You need to decide if you're going to let her incubate her eggs or have an incubator ready. I let Bunny incubate her eggs. I kept her cage between 88-92 degrees and 70-80% humidity, and 60 days later, all 33 eggs hatched.
