Cool,

Make sure they have a good place to lay eggs. I like an almost vertical piece of slate leaning against one side of the enclosure with a cork bark flat leaning against the slate about an inch away. This gives them a 'nest' area to lay and attend to the eggs. You'll be able to look in from the front and see them and the eggs as well.

If see lays well inside of 30 days, pull the eggs with the bark or slate and incubate at 85 degrees. The reason is if she is a new WC import or is gravid by another male, he'll eat the offspring because they are not his.

If she lays past 30 days then they can stay in the enclosure. Remember they do not like their cage furniture disturbed once they start laying eggs. She'll stop laying if you do. So set the enclosure up so you can spot clean and water without a complete tear-down.

If the offspring are his, they are safe with their parents until just before sexual maturity.

If she is a fresh import, pull the male after she has laid between 6 to 8 eggs. If not, she will keep laying herself into exhaustion.

Good luck and enjoy,

Michael
