One of my girls surprised me yesterday and laid a huge clutch. Besides digging shes been sleeping most of the day away, i ran out to get her crickets figuring she needed the extra food and protein powder. I fed her some of her favorites today as well but I'm not sure what else to do for her.

Some sites say heating pads under the tank but I was told those were a no no?

Some say daily baths? I gave her one last night but not today I just wanted her to relax.

Should I put her in her own tank? Away from the other bearded dragons. They keep staring at her and scratching at their tanks and making her scratch back in hers. So maybe a different room?

Any advice would be fantastic she just seems so sleepy and I'm not sure if I should offer her more.

Yeah I'd probably keep her warmer for a bit. Maybe use a CHE overnight to get the tank temps into the high 70s or around 80. Offer her plenty of water by dripping it on her nose to lick up. Calcium rich foods are a good idea for a while too. Offer things like collard greens and turnip greens along with hydrating veges like squash.

None of my beardies are drinkers Hahaha. I've been dripping water on her nose a few times a day hoping she takes it. And offering more food but shes not really interested only going after her favorites. Blueberries and maybe a few collard greens.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
