I Might Just Lose It....

I am so frustrated. This is my first breeding project and I am lost. My girl had her prelay shed 10 days ago, and she is burying herself in the nesting box. I know all of this is normal, but yesterday, I had to handle her to move some stuff and clean her tank. I did not feel any lumps in her anymore! She is still way plumper than normal, and she exhibits all the signs of being gravid. She has gone from lumpy to not lumpy like 10 times already. How can I tell for sure if she is going to lay eggs? The guys at Underground Reptiles told me she was gravid. I just don't know what to do. I have the incubator ready to roll, but I am thinking about just turning it off. What do you guys think?

Exactly what he said.

It would also help to just leave her alone. If you see her out in the tank thats a sign she is alright. If you haven't seen her in 24 hrs check the lay box, but dont touch her, just look and close it up. If she is gravid, she will lay when she is ready. Some go for a lot longer than 10 days before they lay. :)
