Here we have some footage of one of our Chinese Alligators, named Ayla, digging a hole inside her enclosure in order to lay her eggs.
After some time, Ayla decided this spot wasn't suitable for her nest for whatever reason, and proceeded to cover it back over.
The following day, she rebuilt another nest very close to the abandoned nest and obviously decided this one was perfect as she went on to lay a clutch of 19 eggs in there.
