She will usually dig a 'nest' in which to lay her eggs - covering them over afterwards. She will stay close-by to ward off predators. When the young begin to hatch, she will dig them out - so they can crawl to freedom. She will carry them to the nearest water source in her mouth, and stay with them through the first few weeks until they're strong enough to be completely independent.
