I am looking after my sons two beardies they have always lived together bout 3 years,

she is pregnant for 2nd time ,wed nite layed an egg, -thurs nite laid an egg -and another today her belly still very lumpy, is this normal as last time she laid 22 in very quick succession, she digging like crazy on and off. so lots more to come i think.

have read up about egg binding and showing no signs, she eating and drinking on and off and being bathed twice a day


i know the male needs to come out but everytime we try to remove him they both go schitzo, they happier together

hi mate i got 2 beardies.your right you need to get the male out asap as he will stress her out.if she dose not finish laying to day ring thr local reptile shop or a vet for advice.my female has had two clutches and never had that happen but as soon as we knew she was pregnant he came out.

no baby pics for a while im afraid i think you have to incubate for 90 days at least.

will be collecting another tank today so will remove him asap will stress her out taking him away but im sure she'll get over it if she gets plenty of attention.

got any pics of yours supra 61, they just great aren,t they will try get some pics up of my sons 2 bud and stella!!

not really havard, just lots of live feed, crickets, hoppers, silk worms etc and lots of veggies they very comical his love nothing better than running round living room she will quite happily sit on my shoulder while doing houswork etc, obviously tank set ups have to be spot on as they will become poorly very quickly if its not.

The gf (Veterinary Nurse) says she could be egg bound, best bet to take her to the vets...

Hope she's alright mate...!
