Re: Waterbowl Hugging :) ?
Like some other people said, she is probably developing follicles. If she starts getting really pretty, start looking for an ovulation then eggs. Good luck.
ps. Woooow, not one single third person reference.

Sounds like she is running through it all nicely. Congrats, and best of luck... hope you have that incubator fired up!

Once you spot the ovulation, she will go into a shed about 2 weeks after. From that point, it's about 30 days give or take a few until eggs. It's always good to have the incubator ready though. I forgot to mention, it's gonna cost a lesser for all the info

Once she ovulates you have almost two months before you see eggs. It's better to have the incubator all set up a couple weeks before that just to make sure it holds a constant temp though. Look for the shed after ovulation. Usually it's 30 days after that you'll see eggs like twisted said.

I wouldn't try and offer food at this point.
Females will stop eating at this point in the breeding schedule anyways.

If she ovulated, she probably won't eat, but you can try. If you're not sure, always continue to feed her.
