    Female laying eggs over long period of time

    I have a female who laid 1 egg on June 29th 1 on July 3rd 1 on July 4th 3 on July 6th 1 on July 7th. Looks like she's going to lay atleast one of the remaining two tonight. Has anyone ever had somthing like this happen?

    That is not normal. She is egg bound, and luckily seems to be able to be pushing them out herself, but I would have intervened long ago. More than likely, none past the first will be viable. It's a really dangerous situation for her to be in, and she can die.

    I would try and get her into a very experienced reptile vet ASAP.

    Re: Female laying eggs over long period of time

    Really sounds like she egg bound with second egg. The problem is the eggs will start adhering to the ovaduct making them really stuck. When was she expected to lay? The eggs that came out latest was there texture rougher than previous eggs?

    She laid another egg this morning. All eggs are roughly the same size. None of the eggs are rough. All have veins and embryos. I understand it's not normal. Last egg has been moving today should get the last egg tonight or tomorrow. It's her first clutch. She laid the eggs on day 41 46 47 3 on day 49 1 on 51 1 on 52 1 on 54. And hopfully 1 on day 55
