ok my female albino is pregnant .I've had her since dec.13 and she was already pregnant. I dont know if its her first lay or not. how long can they go before laying the eggs ? she diggs aroung like she wants to lay them ,but nothing its driving me crazy. Ive soaked her ive gave her like 3 waxworms (just too keep her weight up)she only likes crickets she when she eats. How can ayou tell if the eggs are dead . I hope shes ok?

Do you have a laying box or good sized humid hide for her to lay the eggs in? She needs a hide large enough to dig around in & bury the eggs. The hide you want her to lay them in needs to be kept moist too. They generally lay their eggs every 3-4 weeks. It is typical of the female to not eat for a couple of days prior to laying also. My female continues to eat though LOL Sounds like you could have eggs any day now
