    Dragon egg behaving odd???

    Did you add more water to the vermiculite and therefore increase the humidity?

    Mating and egg laying?

    No worries, yes I've been a dragon breeder for around 5 and a half years now also, but this is the first time anything like this has happened, lol. In the past they either laid fertile eggs which resulted in babies, or no eggs at all. None of this infertile egg stuff, although I'd heard of it...

    Mating and egg laying?

    Thanks Tom, that's a heap better than your first response, a bit more detail. Where did you find out about the biology of beardies? I searched for a long time before I posted this thread and found no in depth reproductive biology info.

    Mating and egg laying?

    Hi guys just wondering if anyone knows how short a time after mating can a female beardie produce fertile eggs? My male and female were put together on 9th October, and mated straight away, then she laid 19 eggs last night 21st Oct, 12 days later. These eggs actually look quite good, but it is a...

    Un-cordinated beardie!!?

    He seems fine mentally otherwise, very alert and nothing wrong with eyes that I can tell. Someone on another forum suggested drying out of the inner ear. I have him booked into the vet, so hopefully they can help. But in any case, I woke up this morning and he seems back to normal, so I have no...

    Un-cordinated beardie!!?

    I just got home today and noticed that my nearly 3 year old male beardie, is listing quite badly to one side. He is tilting his head to the right and favoring that side. He seems very unsteady on his feet and is almost going around in circles favoring that right side. It's almost like he's had a...

    Brumation questions

    Well it is around that time of year here in Melbourne, Australia that the weather is starting cool down about 6 weeks before the official start of winter and 3 out of the 4 of my beardies are showing signs they are wanting to go into Brumation. I am very happy for my big male to go into it, as...

    laying box

    better towards the cooler side, you need something bigger, like a 10 gal rubbermaid from walmart, they like it blacked out for privacy too, mine is blacked out for privacy, with a hole for her to climb in and out of. But I often have to almost shove her through that hole, then she digs and lays...

    I'd definitely agree with that and I've bred many dragons in my time.

    Minimum age?

    Sounds expensive, is that really neccessary?

    Minimum age?

    If she has been in with a male then it is quite possible they may be fertile!

    Can eggs be incubated internally?

    Not sure I quite understand the questions, but bearded dragons usually lay their eggs 18-30 days after mating, unless they are storing the sperm. so I would assume there would be some devopment before they are layed. The first thing is, PROVIDE HER WITH A LAY BOX. Because she might still have...

    Minimum age?

    I believe they can, it depends on how quickly your beardie has developed and how fast she has grown. Firstly is "she" in with another beardie? It can be very dangerous for a beardie to have eggs much before she is 18 months old, with 2 years old being even better. The usual signs of a gravid...

    info on breeding?

    Yeah, the hovabators come with instructions, but it is a very simple set up, you will easily work it out. You just put enough water in the plastic channels below to pretty much fill them.

    All in one breeding tips

    This sounds like a great way to do it, if you can manage to do it, as it will allow you to control the amount of breeding, as keeping a pair together continously can lead to the female being over-bred. Yes not starting her breeding till she's 3 is best for her health and it will be better for...

    Mold...please help!!!

    You can try and wipe the mould off with a dry cloth. The baby should be fine, and I definately wouldn't be throwing any of the eggs out unless they completely rot away. I candle my eggs once a week, no more, I think it disturbs the embryo somewhat. The humidity can be quite high, just as long as...
