Veiled needs to lay eggs/how long before I worry.

[PackMaster]

I have a 5 month old female veiled. I believe she needs to lay eggs. I have a sand/organic soil box in there for her to lay the eggs. I have a beach towel around the outside to give her privacy. The soil seems to be the right consistency. She got real active and her behavior changed, so I figured she was ready. That was 1week age. She seems more "normal" now but still looks chubby to me. I don't want to disturb the soil while she is in the enclosures and discourage her to lay. I have had male panthers in the past. This is my first female veiled. I hate to stress her with a trip to the vet before its needed. How long before I should worry. Any signs I can look for?
I appreciate any and all help !!! Thanks!

Five months is young but it's possible to lay at that age if you over feed them. Post a few pictures of her please. Below is my blog about egg laying and a video by Dez on the laying bin. I hope you find them helpful.

Thank you!

This is my first gravid female. How long before she might lay eggs? Next question, what signs do I watch for, if she DOESN'T lay the eggs before I seek a vets help? Sorry for the simpleton questions. Thanks again!! I appreciate it!!
