    Beardie laying eggs HELP!!!!!

    Well, we got 8. I keep putting her back in the lay box but she just doesn't seem interested. I will keep trying because her belly still looks a bit full. Its so strange because last time she laid 20, came out and covered them up. She did it by the book. LOL I'm just concerned for her health.

    beardie eggs: help needed!

    Hi - I'm new to breeding myself, but from what I've read, the shriveling is definitely due to lack of humidity. Get them in an incubator in some proper substrate and some moisture ASAP. Calcium is important, but if the beardie was given calcium rich greens, then it's not too terrible if they...

    Beardie laid 20 eggs!

    They are NOT brother and sister. I have managed to raise the humidity to about 67%. I hope that's good enough because I can't fit any more containers of water into the incubator. I won't give up on them. Has anyone ever had any dimpled eggs that ultimately hatched? Thanks!

    Beardie laid 20 eggs!

    A few weeks ago, we adopted 2 beardies from a home that couldn't keep them anymore. A male and a female - 5 years old. They were both on the small side, skinny and not fed the right diet. They have been housed together since birth. Initially we kept them together, but he obviously tries to...

    Aquarium Sealant or Regular Bathroom Sealant

    Me and my girlfriend have ceramic tiles down in our tanks. We want to seal the edges but are not sure if Regular Bathroom Sealant is ok or if we should just buy Aquarium Sealant. Now im assuming that Aquarium sealant is ok. Thanks.

    Whats the best Substrate? Consensus on this forum please.

    I remember reading that the self stick tiles weren't recommended. Can anyone shed some light on that for me? I would love to use them if I can't find the ceramic ones I want.

    OMG my girlfriend just bought me 2 11 week old Baby Beardies

    The container they are in now is one of those plastic Sterilite containers. It's plenty of room for them right now, but I know they'll outgrow it quickly. I just want them to get used to me before I go changing things on them. They were raised in that container. I have them under a reptisun...
