Well, nobody knows because Stegosauruses have been extinct for over 1.4 million years. However, Stegosaurus may have layed 1-4 eggs at a time. More then likely the father did not stick around to help the mother raise the young.

Whenever a predator like Allosaurus came around, the mother would have got in front of her young flapping the plates up and down and swishing her tail in an attempt to scare it away. If this did not work, she may have turned around and waved her tail in the enemy's face, possibly inflicting some sort of injury to it with the spikes on her tail.
