I have a 6 yr old western female that has not laid eggs after 2 years of witnessed breeding. This year I bred her repeatedly to a proven male and she finally appeared gravid. Wednesday I saw her laying eggs. She laid 15 slugs and 1 that looks good. She continued straining like she had more eggs to lay, but I couldn't feel any. After about 30 minutes, I called the vet, planning on getting her in at once. Unfortunately, she didn't make it. Not sure what the problem was. I had all but given up on her ever laying eggs after the last 2 seasons. Now I wish she hadn't. Hopefully the 1 egg will be OK.
