It's not unusual for a female carrying eggs to eat sporadically or go off food until they lay. Then they are ravenous and build back up. Try not to worry

most of my females will go off feed when gravid. as soon as they lay though most go right back to eating... voraciously. some of my females will even stop eating when they start ovulating. i've had a couple go from over 70 grams down to around 50 grams during the time they are gravid. i wouldn't worry about her eating for a few days. she will start digging around the lay box when she's getting ready to lay.

Did she come to you gravid, or did you breed her yourself? Just curious, because if she's new, she really should be in quarantine for a while before you decide to breed her.

She will most likely lay her eggs soon, as others have said. They do tend to go off feed around their due dates....the important thing is to make sure she eats well AFTER she lays her eggs, so she doesn't become too debilitated.
