Re: I need so sav help!

I have two enclosures one that's even bigger then this one which he she is in all year normally but I put him her in this enclosure because I can keep a Better eye on this one. Also I can keep this one darker in the lay box area and warmer at the same time.

Re: I need so sav help!

Thanks for the photos. Unfortunately the ""laybox" is totally unsuitable.
It absolutely MUST be completely opaque, not see through, the idea is to offer somewhere secure ("private" to hide the eggs). The substrate must be almost full to the top and quite firmly tamped down and heated to between approx. 27 to 30c.
A solid wooden box measuring approx. 90L x 60W x 45H (cm) with a hole either in the side or the top just large enough for the animal to squeeze in might be acceptable to her, but as already mentioned, using the whole enclosure floor space is much better (obviously too late for that now).
I think under the circumstances there`s almost no chance the monitor will find a suitable nesting site in time, I would recommend having another xray done asap to determine the development of the eggs, otherwise she may die from reproductive failure which is quite a common occurrence.

I will get it fixed tomorrow. I put that together in a panic. Eggs never showed on the X-ray so I was not sure what to think. I'll get it fixed I love this girl and don't want to lose her

Yes, you can have the eggs removed and her reproductive organs as well at the same time. This will keep her from developing eggs in the future, thus taking away the risk of future stasis.
