Thanks you all.

I dont really know what is going on over here. I went out and dug again for Tobis eggs outside and NOTHING; but her behavior is seeming otherwise!

She is back to eating like a PIG...Not freaking out today at all. I put her basking area back on the side of the tank and taped a top on it (in case she was gonna try getting out again) And she has been on it a few times today (not as much as normal) but she did NOT try to escape! She is just laying in her foliage and seems really "normal"?!

I guess it could be possible she laid in water and ate em before I noticed anything...OR could be she was so hungry and tired out from diggin yesterday that she is just DONE for a couple days.

We will just hang out for a bit...and if her behavior turns "erratic" again...I will know. If she just stays her docile, hungry self; going to get another xray to be sure!

Gotta do what I gotta do...for HER and my peace of mind! Thanks again for allllll you guys support and well wishes! I will keep you updated. :)

Hopefully she's laid them! If she laid them in the water and ate them, you'd probably notice some small bits of shell.

Just a note about when my girl laid them in the water, it happened weeks after she wouldn't nest in the box and stopped exhibiting the behavior. The other time she laid one was just random. I knew she had a small one (she had an x-ray a couple of weeks before) but there was no behavior change at anytime.
