Uroplatus phantasticus not laying eggs

Hey,

I have/breed several Uroplatus (phantasticus, true ebenaui, pietschmanni).

I have 2 females (1 my own CB early 2018 und 1 WC). Both are adult they pair with males - about 4-5weeks later they go down on the griund and pretend to lay eggs.. But they don't lay any.
Both have huge calc sacs. I don't know where they come from, because i don't dust with ca since i noticed them growing (about 5 month ago).
They both get UV (ZooMed 5.0).

I heard that obese Uroplatus don't breed, could that be the problem? Or do you guys have another answer to this problem?

Greetings Daniel

what about clear pictures? and how long has this gone on? one cycle, 5 cycles...? have you seen them breeding? do they have good substrate to lay in?

Hey, sry.
1 Female is CB 4/2018 and 1 is WC - both are adult, mated several times with different males (proven breeders).
They have leaf-litter on the ground with different stages of wet and dry substrate - 1 other female is laying regularely (WC), she gets the same food / minerals.

Picture is attached.

Greetings
