Question about female axie health

[Tye]

I bought two juveniles last year and I wasn't sure if one was female or just late to develop. The other I've know was male for a few months.
He recently started dropping sperm packets and I tried to pick them up best I could.
However this morning I noticed eggs in the tank, confirming my other is indeed female.
The problem is that I absolutely do not have the funds right now to set up another tank. I won't have the money for at least two months.
How many times can my female clutch before it starts to wear down her health? I know they'll keep breeding nonstop unless separated, but I can't do that at the moment.
As an emergency I can repurpose my 10 gallon betta tank and move my betta into a smaller five gallon if my female axie is in danger.
Do I have time to save up for another tank or is this an immediate danger?

I can only talk about my own experience. I bought three juveniles at the same time and housed them together in a 29g tall. This fall they spawned three times and I was worried about the females (I think there are two of them). They haven't spawned again which is good because I'm already maxed out on how many larvae I can raise right now. With such a young female many eggs were infertile or were deformed upon hatching. It couldn't hurt to separate them if you have extra room - I'm in the process of moving the male to his own 10g and the females to their own 20g. It might also not be a necessity since they could just naturally stop spawning once they realize it's winter. I hope that helps!

If you can't get a second tank, making a divider will also work! I use plastic canvas with strips of sponge around the edges so it fits snugly. Walmart sells a 12" x 18" sheet of plastic canvas (large enough for most aquariums) for $3 while Amazon sells cut-to-fit aquarium sponge sheets for $7- not too bad of a solution if you're in a pinch. Good luck!
