Hello Augusto! My name is Glenda and I'm from Texas in the U.S.

I'm going to leave you a website that should provide you with all the information you need for setting up a nesting site and incubating (if that is your choice). You may already know of it, but if you don't, it is the best advice on the web in my humble opinion. Be sure and read the other articles referred to there on egg binding, too.

She may be in distress with the eggs. If so, she will need the services of a good herp vet. Egg binding is a serious problem that is life-threatening in most situations.

You don't mention if she's in an enclosure most of the time or is a "free roamer." If she's enclosed a great deal, then make a room iguana safe (no little things to ingest;no toxic plants to eat, etc.) and let her walk around and get exercise daily. This will help with the egg laying.

Please read the material at the Kaplan website. If you have questions about anything you read there, someone here will be happy to help you.

Good luck to you and your iguana!
