No no they yet she went down for a third or fourth time now though the sand interests her... it’s weird but she still been checking it out a lottttt, she’s been eating a little sand not as much as the first time
Whatever u do please leave her in complete privacy..cause she can easily to abandon her laying site n it could leads to egg bound if she takes a long time to lay
Read this completely so u can understand the basic let me know if u have any questions

Yeah she’s had complete privacy I’ve jsut Been watching her through the camera XD she started eating a little bit, getting chunkier too much more round, I’ve read sometimes they eat the sand to replace the minerals etc she needs or to test the acidity levels of the lay bun substrate too possibly
It could happen cause her body is producing eggs n it tells her she needs calcium...thats why u need to supplement all ur feeder prior she get eggs..and if she is not mating with any male then i would cut down her food to reduce the clutch size

Yeah I’ve been doing her supplementation good, I’ve also done the calcium drops a couple times to boost her calcium , she mated with my male a couple weeks back 2-3 weeks I’ll have to check my paper in my room that I’ve been documenting her on.
Ok u do that...great job to keep it in the record!
