I have an adult female leopard gecko I rescued from a pet store. She is 2 years old, and in excellent health. She has a nice fat tail, eats a lot, and has shed twice with me. I think she may be getting ready to lay eggs. She's been spending all day in her moist hide. I took it out for a little bit this evening to make sure she ate. I forgot to put it back in, later I noticed her doing some odd behavior. She's rubbing herself all over the edges of her hide, up against the glass, across the floor of her viv, and digging around. During the digging she'll stop and wiggle her butt around while spreading her hind legs out. I took her out and she doesn't have any retained shed, and there's nothing in her eyes that would be bothering her. I'm guessing she's getting ready to lay? Is there anything I should do for her? Does her behavior sound like something else is going on? She's my first leopard gecko, I'm extremely new to reptiles so please any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
