Hi,
my beardie keeps laying infertiles eggs like crazy.. so far 5 layings of 30 eggs every 3 weeks. And I think she's making another batch.
How many can I expect? Can I convince her to stop? :)

thx R.

I don't know that there's much you can do to get her to stop, it's just a natural process. Some of them lay a lot more than others for some reason. This can be exhausting for them so do be sure to offer her plenty of water and hydrating foods like squash and other fresh veges as well as live bugs that have been feed fresh veges. Calcium rich foods are also a good idea to offer regularly. If this cycle continues, it may become harmful over time so it's probably a good idea to have a vet monitor her via x-ray or ultrasound to make sure the eggs are developing properly.

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
