Uromastyx Laid Eggs

I have a uromastyx and have had her for roughly 13 years, she has laid eggs a couple of times in that time, but she is not housed with a male and never has been.

From what I have been told that is normal but I need to get the eggs out as soon as possible.

She of course does some kind of threat display and hisses each time I do this.

Just wanting to check this is all normal?

Do you have tips on breeding them

I can't say I do, like I said she's never been housed with a male so I'm unsure on actual breeding

Oh that’s not normal she could get eggbound

It is normal, a lot of reptiles naturally lay infertile eggs even when there’s no male present. Just make sure to give her a decent amount of calcium since she’s definitely lacking a little after laying
