Bearded Dragon Passes White-thing in Stool--What Is It?

[KingCobra]

Hello, everyone.

I am new and signed up because my dragon passed a single weird white-thing (I'm assuming) in his stool--the only issue with this thought is that I found it a few inches away from his abnormally small thing of poop and it was dry. I have owned him for 10 years (he is 10) and I have never seen him do this before. It looks sort of like a mixture between a sperm plug and an egg. Actually, it looks more like an egg; so, I'm concerned that he may be a female--however, he was sold to me as a boy and he was even brought back to the breeder (at Repticon) when he was two or three years old, and she confirmed that he was a male. He also has femoral pores and I could have sworn he had two bumps near his vent when I personally checked his gender--this may be mistaken, as I am no expert.

I took pictures of his butt and the weird egg thing, and I even cut the white-thing open to find a golden liquid inside. I hope that he is not a female, as I cannot see him as a her after 10 years. Anyway, it's better if he was mis-gendered than something being terribly wrong with him.

Any help would be appreciated--thanks!

"he" is definitely a she! gender mix-ups happen all the time with bearded dragons in fact when a bearded dragon is young its bones look like the same thing as a hemipene but that yellow thing looks like an old egg that your beardie could have had for a long time. I have no clue why there's only one but it does look like an egg to me

That's an egg so you'll need to set up a laybox ASAP. Just Google how to set it up and get what you need so she can lay the rest. They usually have at least 15 but often quite a few more.

I just can't even... see him as a her. But I'll get used to it. Alright, thanks for the confirmation!

Thanks! I'll set-up a nesting box right away.

Hello,

It is surprising indeed after that many years. She may lay more eggs so a laybox as
suggested is a good idea!
