How many eggs did she lay?

She laid 33 eggs. When I took out her bin she was still garding it.

33 is a lot of eggs for Panther but it’s possiable she could still be holding some. I would recommend getting your vet to xray her to see if there’s any left.

You said…”I heard for some breeders they hatch without the yolk attacked to them”…you mean by incubating them like that?

 

[lexi322]

Yes. And they also hatch faster and healthier

 

[kinyonga]

I have no information on that to prove or disprove it.

I would make sure that the female can not see the male... You will only cause her more stress with this. 33 is a lot of eggs. You may want to put her on a controlled diet/basking temp to reduce clutch sizes in the future. The more eggs they lay the harder it can be on them and the more risk you run.

FYI in case you do not know the females retain sperm which means even without mating her again she will have another clutch of possibly fertile eggs.
