Help!!! Beardie just layed an egg

[lesleyg1989]

I have two beardies and the girl has just layed an egg, I did separate her and the male a while ago but that obviously gave them enough time to mate. So now I have an egg and there's a chance that they could be brother and sister so obviously I'm going to have to freeze the eggs. However I don't know what to do with the girl. She looks quite weak and hasn't ate in a few days, is there anything I can give her or do to help.
Thanks.

Warm bath and a place to dig. Put a laying box in with her. 12" deep is the recommended. Clay, potting soil, etc. Once she's done she'll need another bath and lots of food. Calcium with everything.

How old is she? How much does she weigh? If they mated you could be doing this every month for the next 5-6 mo's. Good luck.

Hello,

Oh poor girl. Yes, she could be laying several clutches, only time will tell.
Do you have a UVB light right now? If so, what type & brand are you using, a fluorescent tube bulb or a compact/coil light?
Do you give calcium supplementation on a regular basis?

If you have any pictures of her, that would be great as well. Try to get some chicken, or turkey baby food into her with a plastic syringe or dropper so she gets some nutrition in case she is shelling more eggs or getting ready to lay more eggs.
