Please take a peek at Bella...

[MrsFrog]

Can you guys and girls take a look at my Bella and tell me if you think shes holding eggs or not? I'm really worried that if she isn't there might be something wrong with her. She seems to be getting bigger and bigger. Heres some pics of my girl.

Thanks

Yep, she looks like she's filling with eggs. They can even get more plump than that.

She's a big girl, all right! I would guess that she's gravid.

I'm getting quite excited , how long do they hold eggs for does anyone know?

Well, there isn't really an exact answer to that question. It really depends on if you have a pair together in the tank. If so, they'll just mate whenever they're ready, and she'll lay the eggs anywhere from a few hours to two days afterwards. Have you read up on raising them on: http://www.axolotl.org/rearing.htm yet? That site has extremely useful information in it.
