It is likely the eggs are "spermed" (for lack of a better term) after they are layed. **This happens in the wild as well. The female does not need a male to lay eggs, but the eggs need a male to fertilize the eggs. The eggs will just stay eggs in the tank without a male to fertilize them. The female may also eat the eggs if left in there with her.
