So my bearded dragon had been glass surfing and running around and digging and I had no clue what was going on and when I looked it up I didn't see anything about laying eggs and then suddenly after like a month of this she laid eggs (I didn't know if she was a girl or boy until she laid). That was last night.Today she laid another egg. I filled a tank with sand and put one of her hides in it a bit ago and put her in and she moved a little bit, and then fell asleep after wiggling around a little. Should I move her.back to her regular cage? Should I leave her overnight? Also is it possible to only have 8 eggs? And any other advice would be appreciated.
Hi there....you can't always feel eggs that are infertile but it is possible that's all she has. You can put her back in her regular tank and try the laybox again tomorrow. You can give her a warm bath too, maybe tomorrow, that sometimes causes them to try to poo and out pops another egg.
Can you post pics of her, the laybox and her tank ?
The laybox is fine, nice + deep. Some dragons will dig right away if you start a tunnel for them by hand. Since she is wet from her bath be sure to put a heat lamp over the laybox. Just leave her in for a short while + don't let her stay wet.
Yeah I dried her off and put her on the laybox. I think I might leave her there overnight cuz she tends to lay eggs when I'm not around. My UVB is the Zoomed Powersun wilhich provides UVA, UVB, light, and heat, so I only have the one bulb since it provides everything.
O.k....I use the Powersun as well but have never mounted it at an angle because it's more prone to burn out that way.
How's your little girl doing now ?
Yeah I probably shouldn't have it at an angle but my tank opens from the top and it would either fall off or melt the plastic around the metal or....well it would get messy ?
Shes laying down rn but she did a little digging (no eggs)
