Getting thin with all the egg laying

[JohsonChou]

So had my beardie for 4 years and she(now I know) is about 4 - 5 years old. We always thought what we have is a boy so was I surprised to see 20 eggs in the tank earlier this year.

She has since layed twice, so a totaly of 3 times. Each with around 15 - 20 eggs.

I am a bit worried since she wasn't too big of a girl starting out and she is getting noticeably thin now.
She also doesn't seem to have as good of appetite as last year. She would barely eat anything for the 2 - 3 week before the egg laying and eat like crazy for 1 week after laying. I do supplement vitamins and calcium. But it just seems like whatever I feed her, she just turn it into eggs.

Any other tips you have?

Hi there, can you post pics of her to show her full body from above ? Pics of her entire tank + lights as well. Here's how :

I've had egg laying females and that is typical for them to [ usually but not always ] stop eating for a few days or a week before laying. The thing to do is once they start eating again give them all they want, even if it's twice a day. They are eating for 20 -30 now so they need loads of food. Be sure not to skimp on calcium powder and offer good veggies as well. Hydration is important too.
