Egg binding question

[xdoomedsoulx]

My friend just gave me his gravid (infertile) 3 year old female. She's been very well looked after, and should be laying within the next week or so. She's healthy but I'm cautious, so I wanted to know if there is any way to make sure she lays them all or if it's just a case of making her comfortable and she'll be fine.

Also, I heard you should freeze the eggs before disposal. Does this include infertile eggs, and why?

Thanks!

Just be sure to keep her well-hydrated, well- fed, and use calcium supplementation about every other day. Be sure to have a nice comfy lay box for her too filled with dampened play sand or eco -earh, or a mixture. As for hydration, although many feel that daily soaks provide enough water, I personally don't feel it does and I would give water orally via eyedropper or spray bottle. The spraying is done gently on the nose, the water trickles to the mouth, and they drink. It may take a few seconds, but they will begin to lap it up once they get used to it. As for infertile eggs, you can throw them straight in the garbage....there is no life in them to develop.

She has a big sand box, she's been burying herself since she got here! Ill make sure she gets everything she needs, thanks for the reply!

Figure out a way to get them to hatch and house them for a few weeks. You could get a pretty pennie depending on the type of dragon you have. Why them go to waste alot of people would buy them for cheap price craigslist or petstores ask around. You could use the money for a new viv or supples for the dragon. Just a suggestion

It's a bit late for artificial insemination I would think, Terminator. The eggs are infertile. I didn't state it too clearly, sorry!

I'd never sell any live animal on craigslist or any other 'public' (ie. people with not much knowledge of reptiles) website, just because of the idiocy I see there every day.
