My beardie is a 1 year old female . Around 5th of February she started digging at her tank floor and being restless so I thought she was gravid. I made her a dig box out of top soil and sand so she could dig. She dug a few times in this dig box but quickly became stressed and uncomfortable being in this box. So I decided to put a lay box in her enclosure with her. This seemed to work and she quickly started digging again and didn’t really do much else other than having a break every now and then to bask. For about a week now she has shown no interest in digging at all but hasn’t laid any eggs. I’ve tried feeling for eggs in her belly but this is the first time and I don’t really know what I’m looking for. I can definitely feel lumps in her belly and they feel like how imagine eggs to feel like and are the right size but there is also a bigger longer lump on the side of her belly. Her behaviour has been normal. She is not showing any signs of distress or is lethargic. The only difference I notice is that she is very hungry and goes crazier than she normally would over food. She has put on 10g since before this started but I have been giving her plenty of bugs so she isn’t weak when laying eggs. I have also boosted her calcium intake up aswell. Could she still lay or have I mistaken the digging for something else and could the lumps just be normal food/poop lumps?
