If she lays them on the same sandy spot all the time, try putting the egg box right there.
If not, try moisturing the viv much just the night before you think the egg will come, and cover the venting holes. Then maybe they'll wont dry out if you find them fast.

Good luck!

Explain your lay box to us. Does she ever go in it for hiding, or anything else? Also, what is the substrate inside the box?

Darth, havnt you heard about calci-sand? Its the worst substrate you can use with a Leo. You should get it out of there as soon as possible. Your leo is at rick of impaction.

It's CALCIUM-sand that's dangerous, not normal sand. And that's the thing we're talking about. They can eat the sand if they need calcium, and therefor there's a risk of impaction.
