not gravid ... digging

[dank7oo]

so i have aabout 2 inched of dirt on the bottom of my dwarfw cage, and today AND yesterday, one has been digging holes, like they do to lay eggs ... the PROBLEM is that the one digging has NO eggs in her ... i felt her stomach and there is nothing but FAT!

what should i do? and should i be worried?

[dank7oo]

i lied ... she is gravid after rechecking her ... now a new problem
she is digging in an area where there is a peice of cement (bottom to driftwood) and cannot dig deep enough to lay the eggs ... she will relocate herself to an area eventually where she CAN lay them right?
just wondering ... let me know

Yes... she needs a bucket with half a foot of moist dirt for her to dig her tunnel and lay.
