Gravid?

[bellatrix]

Hi I got a female ymen a couple of weeks ago. Having only had experience with boys I am not sure if my cham is gravid. She has a little pot belly on her not sure if her previous owner just over fed her or if she has eggs. Are there any tell tale signs I should be looking for?

Does she have yellow/mustardy colored splotches on her?

She's two. She looks like the third photo all the time. It's not letting me upload photos. How big does the laying bin have t be?

get a 5 gallon bucket, and fill it with damp play sand.

the sand should be wet enough to allow a tunnel to be dug, without collapsing, but not so wet that it just turns to mush.
