I can't. I have never seen a hole dug with front feet. The plastic just to the left of the hole in the pic is the entrance to her hide. If she was half in her hide this could have been dug with back. I don't know how she could have done this with front. I emailed the vet and she says it is possible, but very unlikely she has eggs again this soon after major surgery. Thanks for the quick responses. Guess I will just wait n stress again.Can you tell if she dug with her front legs? Or back legs?
That makes sense. I sure hope it is just left over urges. Can't imagine her uterus is healed enough to lay. The vet fixed a tear from her trying to lay the broken eggs. This may cure me from taking rescues. Although to be fair, they have all caused me significant amount of worry at one time or other.Not usually. When its time to settle down they will find a nice bush and scootch (scientific term) back and forth until they have made a little depression to lay in. If your tortoise dug a hole it was probably for nesting. She may have some left-over urges from when she had the eggs.
