well you seem to be one of the many unexperienced breeders out there well First get a 18 gallon pot of about 10 inches of moist dirt and make it moist put the female in if shes pregnant she’ll dig a tunnel and lay them but i’d do it quick before she holds the eggs to long and becomes sick and most likely will die..

i did all of that already..I have bred MANY different types of reptiles before and I know what to do. I was looking to see if you knew any other ways to tell if the female is pregnant other then what i have listed

Feel her up, probe around the belly and feel for bumps (about the size of marble). You can also pick up her back end by the base of the tail so she flattens out her belly and then look for bumps. Neither one works very well on large (fat) females.
