[QUOTE="Vilderup, post: 1993866, member: 101468"] Hey all, my female bearded dragon, Sandy, was diagnosed with follicular stasis yesterday after a long and inactive winter. I thought she was half-hibernating, however she was still very awake, not lethargic nor lacking appetite. She would regularly hide and she would almost never poop. I took her to the vet yesterday and they took an X-ray and it looked like a bunch of small eggs, however with no shell. They were stuck on her ovaries, and usually never "fall" off when they're at that late of a stage. I was told that I would essentially have to wait it out and see what happens, and if surgery was going to be necessary. If she looses appetite and becomes very lethargic, surgery was pretty much the only option. She currently hasn't pooped in around 6-8 weeks. However, no impaction was shown, only a little constipated. 4½ years of age, weight of 600g, no weightloss recently(almost ever), fine eyes, ears, nose and mouth. Otherwise very healthy. Some laxatives was given, to get the stomach moving and going. What I'm seeking advice is, what should I do? I'm planning on making her terrarium less crowded so there's more space for moving around and at the same time making more places to climb. Any diet, more baths, anything to make the eggs "let" go to avoid surgery for her? Or do I just have to wait it out and see what happens? Thanks in advance... Mathias [/QUOTE]
