Do you know when she was mated? When was she with a male? Is she still eating? You need a lay box of some sort for her to dig and lay her eggs in, and an incubator if you plan on hatching the babies. You will also need lights and caging for the new hatchlings. She could lay from 10 - 40 eggs at a time, and lay up to 5 or 6 clutches. sent you a pm it may help more. -Jay

Honestly, if you dont have the incubator set up and already adjusted to the right temp when she lays, I would just freeze the eggs. She may not lay till after the 7th, but theres no way to tell for sure. In the wild they dont have to contend with air conditioning either. They also dig much deeper holes to lay eggs in the wild, thus keeping them warm. -Jay

If we dont have an incubator ready we just freeze the eggs or feed them to the monitor. Has she started to lay the eggs yet? You said she still has some eggs in there, what did you mean by that?

You can check to see if she laid. Once our girls start digging we watch but leave them alone, until they loose interest, or lay and bury the eggs. Disturbing her during laying can really stress her out, possibly cause her to bind, or cause her to scatter the eggs in her cage. You really must watch her when she digs. What are you using as a lay box? -Jay

Ok tell me what she did when you put her in the lay box, and did you have a light on one end? Did you pack the damp sand down making one side deep, sloping down to a shallower side? -Jay
