Have you got sufficient uvb over her yet? A T5 HO fluorescent tube uvb is what’s needed
Don’t know much about pregnancy but I do know the lay box is needed. Make sure it’s a lil moist enough to dig into and hold. Not so moist it’s creating a lot of humidity. She may or may not eat but if she does make sure it’s dusted a lot of calcium rich foods is needed and definitely the uvb. Hopefully someone will chime in and ease your mind on what to do next. They had her in no uvb man that’s messed up and letting it mate wth is wrong with people.
Hi there, if you can find a reptile vet ask if the y can get her in ASAP to give her a shot of Oxytocin which will induce egg laying. Otherwise she may just lay them a few at a time like she's doing but there is the possibility of problems . She is on the small side to have been bred but it's good that she's eating . The move would not have caused premature laying. Can you post pics of the laybox and her entire set up ? And yes, you can give her a short, warm soak .
12% which I’m hoping is right?yeah very sad, but you should feel good about what your doing! Good job on the uvb what % bulb did you get? Good job on eating greens vital part of beardie health is the greens. Good thing you came across them
Very glad to hear. Keep us posted!I just wanted to say thank you for the advice, it was super helpful while I was so stressed.
I took her to the only nearby vet that sees reptiles. They X-rayed her and her eggs all look fine, not too big etc. She actually laid an egg mid x-ray! They phoned a reptile specialist who advised to see how she goes until Monday, as she’s alert, eating and generally seems well. If she hasn’t passed the eggs by Monday the local vet will give her Oxytocin. If that doesn’t work the reptile specialist will see us (they’re referral only). Obviously if she shows any signs of going downhill we’ll be straight back to the vet.
