    I don't think they lay eggs unless they have a fairly large body of water, like a kiddy pool. As far as I know, they reabsorb them most times. But a year is a little too young to be gravid. My Banjo is still growing a little, but I doubt she'll get much bigger. Hasn't been gravid yet. Congrats tho, it's awesome to watch them grow up.

    *just measured Banjo and she's just shy of 3in. still looks like the tiny thing she used to be to me. i used to feed her way more than i do now. when i 1st got her she was too stressed to eat so when i found something she liked, i'd just give her as much as she wanted. and semi-recently she went through another growth spurt, shedding more than usual. had me worried, cuz they don't want to eat before a shed, but cut that out eventually. she shed this morning, then ate an earthworm so thought it'd be a good time to measure. very proud of her. last time i measured was maybe April (?) and she was about 2.5in.
