So, I made a new environment with super dry coconut fibers for my two alligator lizards. I dried the coconut fibers for days now. One of them has been buried since last week. I was going to wait until they eat all of the crickets and wait until the one that is buried to surface so I can move them to the new environment. I usually would drop in 10-12 crickets in at a time and the next day, they are all gone. The last batch only half of them are gone.

Today, the aquarium has too much shed skin so I decide to move one to the new environment. So, I was looking from the bottom of the aquarium for the other one to see where she buried herself. I saw her in the middle of bunch of white eggs.

This is the one that I caught in front of my mom’s house in April. So you are right Funky that she is gravid. Does this mean that the eggs are good? I moved all the live crickets to the new aquarium already.

So, how long does it takes and what preparation should I do. I don’t want to disturb them because I think it is important to let her guard her eggs like you said. The eggs are buried 2 inches deep so will they be safe from the impact of the soil? I am going on vacation for 4 days next week. I am concern that they might hatch when I am away and the babies might not have food.

I will be back!
