[QUOTE="xp29, post: 2038927, member: 114539"] My female stopped eating two to three weeks maybe a bit longer before laying. She also stopped pooping. The last 2 1/2 she was crazy active. She would not set still for more than a minute or two. She didn't start digging until the day before she clutched. This was her 3rd clutch so I knew what to expect. I gave her the dig box in the evening, she laid early the next morning. As fas as I know they prepare to lay much the same as they prepare for brumation. They go off food and empty their systems. If your beardies are gravid it's as much important to be ready for the after care as it is to be ready for the laying. They will be famished, they also will be depleted of calcium. Give calcium every single day for the first week to two weeks. I give multivitamins 3 to 4 times per week for the first 2 weeks after. Also stay on top of hydration, they will likely be slightly dehydrated after also. To answer your question about watery poops. It can be caused by a multitude of things: to many hornworms, overly wet greens, parasites, over hydrating orally, ect. To be honest I prefer my dragons to have slightly watery poop as compared to hard, chalky urates. (A sign of dehydration) [/QUOTE]
