Some tortoises will lay anywhere when a suitable laying site is not available. Especially if they
are infertile. I must say its usually on top of the soil, not in front of an aga<g>.

If they havent been with a male, then they could sense the infertility maybe.
Or they just know. Its a shame we cant talk to torts<g>.
