Help!!Beardy pooping eggs??!!

WELSHDRAGON · Apr 29, 2009

Hi im really sorry to bother u guys,this mite be a really stupid question,but im really worried!!Came home from col,and my beardy has pooped what looks like eggs to me!!Although theres only been the one beardy in the cage in two years!!Theres about five of these egg like things in the cage.To touch there very soft, and they are white!!Whats going on??

Do you have a female I'm guessing? Sometimes females can lay infertile eggs. Just discard them. Is she digging around the cage? Does she feel like she has more eggs? Keep her plenty hydrated and supplements lots of calcium into her diet.

Hiya,

i was just going to say the same as erin. Femail dragons do lay infertile eggs so nothing to worry about! I found out the same bout my girl she hasn't laid them yet and shes only ten months old so havn't experienced this yet.

Whats your dragons name? Do oyu have any pics up?

thanks guys...Pheeeewww!

If she is digging around the cage I would put her in a laybox. She is looking for a safe place to lay. If she doesnt find a place she may try to hold onto them and they will bind her up.
A lay box set up could be as simple as a rubbermaid tub with sand and soil mixed together. Wait till you see her dig in there!!
Good luck.
