 Gravid or just fat?

I would like a second opinion on this. I think she is gravid but i thought maybe it was to early but then i looked it up and its the right time for them to start mating.

You can sometimes feel the bumps of the eggs in her.

yea she acts like she is, she keeps running around and trying to dig and its late and she has not gone to bed yet so im fixing her a lay box and hopefully she’ll start laying soon. ill try and see if i can feel any eggs, ill try not to stress her out though and ill keep posting updates.

She definitely would appear to be getting gravid. Now if she wasn’t eating a lot before, you will have to now for the sake of the eggs. Give her a larger and more varied diet so she can properly supply nutrition to the eggs. You should use a vitamin powder (one that doesn’t have just calcium) as well.

ThesaurusRex-alright. she has been eating more lately and i just have the calcium powder so ill have to buy the vitamin powder this weekend along with some eco earth for a cricket farm so ill have some pinheads. For the lay box, would vermiculite or eco earth work better, or something else you prefer?

You could try either, as long as you keep them damp.
