My "male" Beardie just layed eggs???

[STORMS]

OK, so now I know Doobie obviously is not a male Geesh! Unless there is something about male dragons that I was not aware of......if that's the case - please fill me in now!
Why do people lie when they sell you animals??? Guess I will never understand that.

Anywho....I assume the eggs are slugs (obviously) since there is no male present. I wasn't aware a female could lay eggs at all with out a male Should I expect this to happen often? Is there anything special I need to do for her? Extra food? Leave her alone? Anything?

Also, do I just reach in there and take the eggs away? She seems to be guarding them

Any input would be great. Thanks in advance

It happens Hun just make sure to do the dusted crickets and even a little on any veggies and fruits that you are giving also a fat pinkie every few weeks wouldn't hurt I did that for my breeder females when they were laying and it happens to almost every female species on earth think about your monthly

Holy Crap! She's going to lay eggs EVERY month? Am I understanding correctly? WOW! Guess I just learned something new. I wasn't expecting this at all since I was told "he" was a proven "male" breeder. I assumed they just had a breeding season....not a monthly female thing.


Oh yeah...Can I just remove the eggs? She is laying on them still. There are sooooo many!

no hun i meant that females in general can produce eggs even without compulation lol

[pillowtalk6188]

ok so should she remove them or not? and how often will a female lay, even without a male present?

[Royal Morphz]

i had a conure that laid eggs every few months you never can tell with each animal and yes she can remove them as they are most likely not viable

Sounds like a lesson in lizard anatomy is in order

Just removed the eggs - Doobie made it interesting, she kept puffing up as if she was defending them and whipping her tail around...poor thing I also ran out to the store and got her a pinky which she gobbled right up Along with some dusted superworms. I still cant believe she laid soooo many eggs - 22 to be exact! Now she's chillin on her basking spot

Maybe I should think about getting her a boyfriend

Get her a egg nest, she might have been holding them in for a while waiting for one which has cause alot of complications ( for instance getting eggbound)

yeah the pinkies seem to boost there protein levels i used to give them to all my girls during breeding season( beardies were the first animal i ever bred way back when i was 17 man that was a long time ago lol) but Lena dont give her to many pinks they tend to get meaner when fed to many plus its not something they would get in the wild
