Hi all!
So my little girl Hela is now around 14-15 months, and still no signs of eggs at all. She has a little bit receptive colors showing, but that's it.
Hela is very small, she had a very rough beginning before coming into my care (she lived in a travel carrier, no heat/lights, no supplements, wild caught crickets outside of a tweaker motel, that's just the tip of the iceberg)
She recently went through some antibiotic treatments due to an infection (she has been doing much better since, but I haven't been able to get her to the vet for a follow up yet due to the holliday's). Months ago I thought she was starting to produce eggs, but turns out it was a poo lol
So knowing she had such a rough beginning and poor care early on, is it possible she never lays eggs??
Of course, she has a lay bin set up if the day ever comes its ready for her, but egg laying makes me extra anxious, she's the only female I've ever had and I'm a bit of worrier lol
I'm planning on taking her vet again soon for some follow up blood work, I want to make sure the infectionis gone and do a complete work up to check on her organs as well, so I'll ask my vet about this as well, but I thought everyones thoughts here as well.
Some previous posts about her to give you some history:
