The eggs are infertile... The females lay eggs even though they have never seen a male...
She should have some laying bin to deliver the eggs and after she is finished you can throw them away.
Make sure she gets tons of calcium these days!
And fill this, please:

Let here finish laying them and return to the branches before you disturb her.

Hopefully she will have laid them all, but I would put in a container of washed playsand immediately after she returns to the branches for her to dig in just in case she didn't. It should be an opaque container. It should be at least big enough that when empty, she can fit comfortably into it with a couple of inches to spare on all sides including above and below her. The sand should be moist enough to dig a tunnel in.

Feed her well for a couple of days and then cut back on the amount of food you are giving her. The amount of food and the temperature that you keep her at gives you some control over reproduction.

What brands of supplements do you use? Do you gutload/feed the insects well?

Im not trying to be rude here, its just that if you dont know these things by now, then you have not been reading all that much about the species. This is common knowledge and should be mentioned in most decent texts.
