Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

hard to say...
can't they hold on to sperm until they're ready for eggs?
mine don't eat when they get ready to lay eggs...they start digging and lay within a few days...
it was hindsight that I might have lost a female that was eggbound...she laid 1 egg...a couple weeks later she was really lethargic...I took her out and put her under uv and all with food right in front of her, held up to her nose (wouldn't eat or drink)...she died in 2 days...unfortunately I didn't think about the possibility that she had another egg in her until later so I don't know
don't know if it would be overreacting to say to have it checked out or to wait a couple days since she's digging to lay eggs
I don't have vermic in the nest box though...it's not good if they ingest it...mine has coco bark (shredded, dirt-like) and moss

the twitching is bad, but seems like it was a calcium od
I don't know if cresteds cover that up if it continues, but it sounds like she moving well now...
so either take her to a vet or watch her very closely
