My female has been laying eggs above ground like 1 at a time with thepast 2 weeks she wont dig and lay inground and ive noticed a few broken eggs when she walk on them. Any suggestions to help her lay inground? Thanks for any feedback.
This is what some of them do their first time around, but its very unusual for them to do it after already digging proper nests and laying fertile eggs...
Has she been pacing a lot, like she's looking for something?
What size enclosure is she in?
Is it all one type of soil consistency?
Try running a sprinkler and dampening the ground near where ever she laid the last time. In the dryer months, mine tend to look for the dampest areas.
