One of my females who I had paired with a male but didnt think actually mated apparently did and laid her eggs but she laid them under the paper towels and I didnt find them until they were too late to save. First rookie breeding mistake. Ill be checking every day multiple times a day for eggs.

Sorry to hear that, I too have an egg that I think may have been found too late but I'm incubating just in case. Only reason I didn't see it is because this particular hide is hard to see (store bought one), it's not a clear container. I guess I can see why breeders use plastic containers as it's easier to take a peek off and on.

Most of the time when the females lay their eggs outside of the nestbox they are infertile anyway. Best of luck with the next clutch!

Thanks! She is a first year breeder so that would make sense. Hopefully she gets the hang of it lol
