I'm a bit concerned about my BP Patch and her egg tube situation. It's been "out" for over a month. Her body swells like she's full of eggs then goes back to normal. She eats normally, poops normally. I haven't seen any eggs either. While she's active, she doesn't swim as much as before. Anyone know what could be the cause of this? Her tube isn't infected or injured. Today I did see her leaning on her canister and rubbing it (she does this before she lays). Nothing in her tank has changed. This is the first time she's gone this long without retracting her tube.
