    She won't lay!!

    Thanks. I'm glad too...lol. She had 19 for her first clutch. They are in an incubator that I made. I wasn't sure if it was going to work until I saw the size difference between the two clutches. The first ones look huge. I guess you don't notice how much they grow when you see them everyday...

    She won't lay!!

    Thanks for trying to help. I went to check on her a few hours ago and she was digging a huge tunnel. All I could see was her back feet sticking out. After about 2 hours in the tunnel she came out and packed it all back in. I gave her a warm bath and then dug up 22 plump healthy looking eggs :) I...

    She won't lay!!

    I have tried to dig holes for her but as soon as I leave the room she fills them back in. She usually digs in the corners under the light but she has tried the other 2 corners too. She won't dig anywhere but the corners. The heat lamp has been drying out the soil so I have been mixing in some...

    She won't lay!!

    Thanks for the reply. It has been 4 weeks and 2 days since her first clutch. I have her in a big rubbermaid bin (grey, not see through) with about 8 - 10 inches of damp soil. I cut the lid in half and put it over one end and have her heat lamp clamped on the other end. She has been digging like...

    She won't lay!!

    My beardie is in her lay box with her 2nd clutch. She has been there for 6 days now digging the whole time but won't lay her eggs. I had issues with getting her to lay the first clutch as well until someone told me to put her bin on an angle so one end is deeper. Once I did that she laid the...

    She hasn't eaten in 5 days!! Is this normal?

    Thanks for the tip about putting the bin on an angle. It worked. She laid 19 eggs today and all of them look good.

    She hasn't eaten in 5 days!! Is this normal?

    I know what you mean...I am using soil and she is still dirty after bathing her (which I am doing daily to keep her hydrated). I will try putting the bin on an angle and see how she does. Thanks for the advice.

    She hasn't eaten in 5 days!! Is this normal?

    Thanks. The bin I have her in is dark grey with about 8 inches of soil. I have a lid over one end and her heat lamp on the other. She will only dig in the corner under her heat. She digs to the bottom then fills part of it back up and starts again...

    She hasn't eaten in 5 days!! Is this normal?

    My beardies mated 3 1/2 weeks ago and she is showing signs of wanting to lay. She was digging in her tank and acted like she wanted out really bad so I put her in a lay box. She has been there for 3 days now and has been working on a hole the entire time. I know she is supposed to lose her...
