 Anoles mating help

a few weeks ago i walked into both of my anoles mating. and for the past few weeks my female anole keeps expanding her large pink throat. what is this a sign off.
does anyone know how long it takes for an anole to lay an egg?
ive heard things like an anole can stash sperm for up to 8 months after intercourse, is this true,

someone please help me, i dont want the egg to just be laying in there and have the crickets eat it.
and how many eggs pop out during a clutch?

-anoles can hold sperm for like 8 or 9 months
-if the mating is succesful it will lay it after 14 days
-and anoles will lay 1 egg(rarely 2)
-also they will continue laying eggs for a couple of weeks.

That is incorrect.Both males and females have dewlaps,The females dewlap tends to be smaller than the males.It takes about 14 days for a female anole to lay an egg after a successful mating.After the egg is laid it should take 35-40 days for it to hatch.Female anoles can hold sperm for about 8 months. 1 (rarely 2) eggs are laid during each clutch.
