Until tonight I was thinking, no way was she gravid afterall, and I had stopped checking. Mistake1 And I continued to adlib feed crix. Mistake2
I just discovered a single egg under the bark she hides under, it had been destroyed by crickets! Rotten little hopping food, ate holes in it. Im kicking myself, she shed twice lately to, I shouldve picked it up, but after all this time I figured she was just fat afterall. I didnt find any other eggs
Better luck next time, live and learn. Im pretty sure millis dont eggs days apart, so unless this egg was layed not long ago, I dont think theres more coming. she dosent look it, but Ive put a moist box in just in case.

That's a shame Inny, damn crickets, its amazing what the little so and so's will eat. Howd the egg in the incubator go?

Foxy, sadly none of the previous 3 eggs (2 from this gal, 1 from the other) that I had in the incubator were fertile. More reason Im spewing about missing this one! Gex are unpredictable little creatures, not like beardys at all. Hopefully next year.
