I hope I am posting to the proper area, but I have a question about females becoming Gravid.

How old are they normally before they start laying eggs?
Will a female who has never been in contact with a male still become gravid?

The reason I am asking is not because I think my female is gravid but, I am just curious to know when I should start watching for it.

Thanks

Most females won't lay infertile clutches until after 18 months old, but I've had girls lay them as young as 9 months. Some never have eggs without being bred, and others will lay anywhere from one to many clutches each year. I know, not much help but it's really the best we can do because each and every female is different.

Thanks for the info

So basically it is wait and see (and Watch her).

I think she is big and long for her age (19" and 7 Month's old) and I just have a feeling that someday I am going to feel lumps when I rub her belly.

Thanks
