Aaa, so excited, Luna is finally laying eggs exactly 14 days after her shed. I had a quick peek and saw 3 pearly white eggs, now I'll have to hold on until I get back from work at 10pm...the anticipation is going to kill me o.O

That's good news I had a long wait too, Kali started laying just before I went to work but I managed to nip home during my lunch hour to peek in on her

I hope everything goes smoothly and keep up updated

I'm a bit concerned her clutch might not be fertile, they're a lot smaller than I thought they would be. I couldn't see any blood vessels when I candled either, but I'll be honest, I have no idea what I'm looking for...There are 15 nice looking ones, 2 that may or may not be good and 2 definite slugs. Here's a (not very good) photo of them all snug in the incubator...

Better pic :)
I think she may still have ome eggs to lay, she won't come out of her laying box and twitches violently when i touch her. She also looks like she's straining. Hoping she's not got one stuck o.O

Tried candling again today, and most of them have a little pink dot and a vein or two, so very hopeful now :) Didn't see anything in the 4 iffy looking ones there, I'll just keep them a few more days and try again, if there's still nothing I'll likely dispose of them. Any idea when I should offer Luna food? She's very cranky today, even rattled her tail at me and tried to strike at the dog (she's never had an issue with him before, luckily he is really laid back and didn't bat an eyelid XD). I did wave a pinky at her this morning, but she wasn't interested.

Is she definitely empty of eggs? If not you need to consider getting her to a vet before worrying about feeding etc.

I think she has no more eggs, she's a lot happier today and I can't see or feel any lumps. She's so skinny now o.O
