At a loss........Need help

My female corn stopped eating a little over 2 months ago, since we bred her to my male i assumed she was gravid. Last week she shed so i assumed it was her pre lay shed (i could tell she was gravid), and i've been checking the cage daily for eggs.

Well yesturday when i checked i could tell she was noticible skinner, in my head i was thinking YEA eggs are here. Nope i was wrong!!!! This is were the "loss" comes in. first i check the nesting box, nothing there, then i'm thinking crap she laid out of the box so i hope i get to them before any damage is done. Nope wrong there to. NO eggs to be found ANYWERE in her cage. I know she didn't eat them because she was so skinny and i took her out 2 adult mice and she took them like the girl i knew over 2 months ago (she has a HUGE feeding response).

So i'm sitting there thinking if they're not in the cage at all and she finally ate (she hasn't wanted to eat in the slightest) then were in the hell are the eggs!!!

Any help steering my mind in the right direction would be very appreciated cause i can't think of anything else that could have happend, and i'm at a complete loss. I'm going to give it a few more days and see if she does lay some eggs, but i highly doubt it.

P.S. I called my man at work to tell him what was going on and to see if he had any ideas on what could have happend (he had nothing that i didn't think of already). First thing he did when he got home was ask if anyone from ssnakess.com knew, He couldn't belive i didn't make a post about it as soon as i couldn't figure it out (he knows i'm addicted to this site). So here i am a day late posting for help (been a very busy month).
