Hello everyone! My little skittles just laid her first egg. Iāve had her since she was a year old and this is the first time she has done this. She is approximately 5 years old (we bought her from someone moving states). She has been super hormonal this past week and I was afraid this would happen. I noticed tonight that she was extremely fluffy and had a feeling she would pass one.
I put her to bed around 8pm then I heard her crawling around in her in cage about an hour later. When I turned on the light she was staring at the inside of her cubbie and did not want to go back in (almost like she was afraid). Once I looked inside low and behold there was an egg. Now Iām not sure when she may have done it but the egg was cold to the touch. I know I should leave the egg inside and she did not seem to mind me taking it away and she imminently started drinking and eating.
She will not get back inside her cubbie now because I think the egg freaked her out.
I just want to make sure I am doing everything I can to ensure her safety and health if she lays more. Thank you so much.
