My 2 year old beardie has been gravid for a month almost. I’ve made her a lay box with play sand in a large storage bin with her heat lamp. I’ve tried daily to put her in but she climbs up the sand and tries to jump out.
I took her to the vet and got an X-ray, they said she is definitely gravid but the shells hadn’t formed. I was given liquid calcium to give daily so I did that. That was 3 weeks ago. She is still very active and pacing around her tank and running around the house. I got her from someone on Craigslist who couldn’t take care of her almost a year ago so I have no idea if she’s ever laid eggs before. I made another appointment for the 15th for the vet.
Is there anything I could be doing wrong or anything else I can try?
She should be O.K, they usually lay when the time comes. Make sure the sand is damp + piled high on one side and the laybox is not too hot. Can you post pics of how your box is set up > They like privacy too so add an upside down large shoebox with one side cut out for her to enter her " cave ".

I’ll find a bigger box and put more sand in there. She’s still not eating and she’s running around the house constantly. She’s also starting poop little poops everywhere again.
