Good evening people, here is the thing:
My female beardie was getting ready to lay an infertile batch of eggs which i did not know was possible. So it took me a 3-4 days to realize something was wrong, but in the end i googled her behavior since she was trying to dig through the carpet. Not before she devoured a box of crickets though. So i got her some nice compact dirt made from coconut fiber that the guy in the pet store suggested the very next day. The morning after(2 days ago) she layed a 7 eggs but i can feel 1-2 still inside(out of them i felt at least one moving while she was on my hand basking). Now the thing is i think an imminent bowel movement has halted the laying of the rest of the eggs since she woke up at 6am to lay the first few and has been exhausted but regaining strength. Since money is kinda tight do i have the luxury of waiting to see if she lays them after she takes care of digestion or could she be in danger and a vet visit is a must? I must admit she has been kinda lethargic but since it has been only 2 days i give that to egg poopin for now.
Edit: By lethargic behavior i mean not moving around much and closing her eyes while basking but still standing tall. I do not actually know the syptoms of such a condition even though i get the general meaning.
Thanks in advance
