tonight my female laid 10 more eggs.
my wife caught her starting to cover the nest so I picked the eggs out while she was refilling the whole. After we got the eggs out I didn't want to wait for her to refill the whole so my wife jokingly said to refill it and leave her and see if she starts to pat the dirt. Jepp, she just started patting the dirt as if she refilled the entire whole herself!! Didn't have to wait until 3 am like last time to bring her inside!

Congratulations on the additional eggs. If I remember right she laid 8 the first time in June? Now 10 more how far apart did she lay them?
Fingers crossed they are fertile. :D

she laid the last batch last month around the 16th. so a little over a month apart. I don't think they are fertile but we will see. My male has been all over her but the first batch, I dont see any veins and I should after a month.
