    That's a very good sign.. They will lay like that to keep the temp of the developing eggs right.. Wait till you go into her tub and she's laying on her back..

    Laying inverted is part of the building process!

    Your hot side is a little cold. It should be 90-92. I would keep offering her food as long as she takes it. And, keep putting that male in if they are locking. Until you don't see a lock for the three days together.

    That would explain why she's staying on the "hot" side while building. Good luck with her!
