Nova is 13 months as of the 25th but hasn't laid any eggs. Like five months ago, we brought her to the vet because she just stopped eating basically everything and was super dark all the time and was still gaining weight and they did an X-ray and said it looked like egg follicles were forming and she'd prolly lay eggs in the next six weeks. Only it never happened.
Her eating has gotten better in the aspect I can get her to eat six or seven superworms and a few bites of salad on a good day, bad day is only one or two, worse day is nothing at all. And she's still slowly gaining. She's maybe 19 inches and over 700 grams and climbing. I feel her belly everyday and don't feel any eggs, shouldn't she have laid her first infertile clutch by now.? I am stressing it because I feel like she doesn't have enough calcium reserves now, since she's slowed way down on eating.(she's not a huge fan of calcium powder, flavored or normal but she'll tolerate it a bit) when do they typically start laying eggs.? She does have a sand box she goes into everyday but she doesn't dig anymore. When she first got it, she would just dig for hours and now, she just gets in it to lay down.
Here is a picture of her for reference to when I say she is a chonky gorl. She's in a 4x2x2 tank with a 100w thrive heatbulb and an Arcadia 10.0 t5 bulb. I give her kale, collards, turnips, mustard greens, blueberries, superworms, hornworms and silkworms. She just won't eat anything else.
