[QUOTE="RayBB, post: 2025427, member: 117662"] My beardie will be 5 on July 5th. We went through similar a couple of months ago. Turns out her calcium/ phosphate levels were really high (perfect ratio but much too high). AND she was developing eggs for the first time. She laid two separate batches. She began to "scratch" at the surface she was on... we had to make her a dig box with EcoEarth.

You can make it a little thinner AND (what worked perfectly for us) you can add just enough "repashy banana cream pie" for her to smell & taste - makes a world of difference. [ATTACH type="full"]81355[/ATTACH] I hope this helps. It could possibly be the issue. MY BEST ADVICE is to find a better vet, one who specializes in herpatology. Also one who is part of your team, who thoroughly listens to you & who kindly educates as you grow with your baby. (My vet is so much a part of our team! We do well-visits every six months. It might sound expensive but it's so much less than missing something & suddenly having a big sick or illness bill. I can call anytime for free phone advice if it isn't too concerning. She loves my beardie & I consider her my friend although I only see her at her office... it's worth the time & effort to find the right vet for you & your beardie. - it's also nearly an hour drive one way to her office because she's the best around [& I live in a rural area] ) If this isn't at all the issue, hopefully the critical care suggestion helps. ❤ Wishing your beardie the best!
