I’ve just recently taken over care of Lady, who is around 8 years old.
Here’s some background: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=251007
She’s had some lumps in her under side since I got her so I expected her to lay eggs at some point. Today I let her stay in her tank most of the day and got her out for some interactive time later in the day, when she’s usually out periodically. When I held her in my hand I immediately noticed that her abdomen is very soft and squishy, much plumper than usual. Then I noticed that this applies to her whole body. She has been sleeping all day, has been refusing almost all food for two or three days, and when I bathed her last night I noticed her cloaca was slightly open and tiny bits of tissue were washing out.
I don’t know what to think as it’s my first beardie but I’m worried about the swelling and inactivity, please help!!
