My 4 year old female appears bloated and has a hard spot in her belly . She eats plenty of crickets but not many veggies. We've tried to give her different veggies. We just gave her a bath and she did poop a little bit but not much. She is also not very active right now. What could this mean?

infertile eggs most likely

when she starts digging give her a top soil and play sand mixture thats moist to dig in you wont be incubating but she can die if the eggs become bound

Many dangers come along with improper feeding and diet. You should always make sure to contact a veterinarian or reptile specialist about your bearded dragon food and to receive specialized diet instructions. Bearded dragons are extremely susceptible to calcium and vitamin d3 deficiencies, which can cause seizures, stunted grown, deformities, and brittle bones. You can reduce the likelihood of such deficiencies by maintaining proper lighting and introducing dietary supplements.

im pretty sure your absolutly trying to help here but your statement is totally off point from what the user is asking
if impaction was a problem she wouldent be pooping its a 4 year old females thats likely just having a batch of infertile eggs if impaction has been ruled out
if he had missed the signs of eggs being present it might as i said be a boung egg and she will need surgery to have them removed
