    Beardie laid 17 eggs and buried them - is she done?

    It's called Lugarti's Natural Reptile Bedding (NRB). Their website says it is "a special blend of high quality sphagnum peat moss, extremely fine sand, and natural clay. It is specifically formulated to provide the most ideal habitat for reptiles housed in a terrarium setting". It also says...

    Beardie laid 17 eggs and buried them - is she done?

    It's been several years since I've had a gravid bearded dragon, but the girl we just got a few weeks ago was showing signs (eating like crazy and then refusing food, digging and butt wiggling) so we made her a lay box just in case. Tonight, she laid 17 eggs!! They are quite squishy, like little...

    Butt wiggling??? Question about behavior...

    UPDATE: She's been scratching around in her enclosure, so I put her in the lay box. She scratches around and digs in there but no eggs yet (and I still feel/see nothing in her abdomen). My worst fear is her getting egg bound, so I'm trying to give her every opportunity just in case.

    Butt wiggling??? Question about behavior...

    She's only been here a few weeks, so its hard to tell yet but I have not seen a single head bob, which I recall my previous male beardie doing all the time. Her beard did go black and she puffed it out at me and opened her mouth the first time I put her in the bath (the water was about 85*F but...

    Butt wiggling??? Question about behavior...

    Just took these... and then she had a bath. I hope these are good enough to tell. I also have a video but thought I'd post the pics first. Do you all think girl? Or boy? :bd:

    Butt wiggling??? Question about behavior...

    Thank you so much for your help everyone! We just did the flashlight method and she very much appears to be female. I just washed up to post this, but I will post a picture next time she's out to get further confirmation (probably later this afternoon). We measured her, as well, and she is 20"...

    Butt wiggling??? Question about behavior...

    That's funny, because I'm not sure. I've bathed her and handled her but I haven't properly looked myself, because the guy who told me she was female runs the reptile shop is pretty experienced in working with all sorts of animals. I had planned on confirming that, but hadn't done it yet. Guess...

    Butt wiggling??? Question about behavior...

    Oh wow! I guess I should let them get a bit bigger. I don't notice any other behaviors that are worrisome. Since she's new to the house I may just have the vet do an exam, maybe an x-ray and parasites check, just to be sure. I showed that video you linked to my husband and he agreed that it...

    Butt wiggling??? Question about behavior...

    Loved the video! It does kind of look like the same wiggle. She seems to be completely uninterested in the lay box, so maybe it is just hormones/growing up.

    Butt wiggling??? Question about behavior...

    We just adopted a 2 year old bearded dragon. She's been with us for only a few weeks. The reptile shop where we got her said she was a female and that she was purchased from them originally as a baby, but the kid she was originally purchased for had lost interest in her and the parents decided...
