Not me! I received the following as a Private Message from @Rony khade, but feel it would be better as a thread... partly because I have no experience whatsoever with gravid torts!

Hey,
Guys hello to everyone on the forum I actually need help regarding my indian star tortoises it's been about 2 months since they mate and female happens to be gravid the eggs are felt by palpation
I actually wanted to know how would it take for her to lay eggs..??
She dug a test hole for about 30 min with her fore limbs 2 days back but didn't repeated that behaviour again
She is healthy and has shell length of 9 inches and basking under a UVB lamp in a appropriate nesting box
But
There isn't any facility for an X-ray here please help should go for an oxytocin injection or wait for some few days more
