Yes. Fallout lore depicts deathclaws laying eggs: licensed reference material describes egg-laying females and a brood, while Fallout: New Vegas includes unhatched deathclaw eggs and nests.
What Fallout lore says about deathclaw eggs
The licensed Fallout tabletop corebook describes deathclaws protecting “egg-laying females” while hunting. That is direct support for egg-laying in the setting, though it is a broad description rather than a detailed account of reproduction.
The Fallout 2 Official Strategies & Secrets guide gives a more specific example: it describes deathclaws protecting an alpha female “with a brood of eggs” and also refers to baby deathclaws. Together, the corebook and guide establish eggs and young in Fallout lore, but do not explain how or when the eggs hatch.
Deathclaw eggs in Fallout: New Vegas
Fallout: New Vegas, released in 2010 and set in 2281 according to Bethesda’s official franchise timeline, makes the idea tangible in-game. It includes a deathclaw egg identified as an unhatched offspring, and eggs appear at nests guarded by a deathclaw mother and alpha male.

The sources support the answer that deathclaws lay eggs and that Fallout depicts broods, nests, and unhatched offspring. They do not provide a reliable account of fertilization, incubation time, or hatching mechanics, so those details should not be filled in by assuming deathclaws reproduce like real-world reptiles. Nor do these examples amount to a survey of every Fallout game, spin-off, or adaptation.
