    So I don't know how they act if such an event happens. What leads up to it. Decreasing/increasing temperatures. Fasting. Or how to safely remove them.

    Or perhaps they are like us and it only "lay" eggs when they are fertile. (Like unfertilized eggs won't attach to the lining, where as fertile ones will and will grow.)

    It's like none of those things. Ovulation is literally one of the last steps in the reproductive process and one of the first/only signs that a female is for sure going to lay a clutch (AFTER she's been paired). Here's a link for you that will help clear this up.
