OMG I AM SO THANKFUL I FINALLY FOUND YOUR VIDEO!! I have been searching the internet and youtube for information and they keep skipping some important parts that are driving me nuts! Thank you so much for passing on your wisdom! This is my first beardie and of course its a female (nervous laugh). Anyways, THANK YOU! And yes I know its been 8 years but idc this deserves a comment.
awsome man i am an aspiring bearded breeder and i hop to become a succesful bredder and you are an inspiration to me , the care and love you put into your animals is amazing keep it up
Your beardies are BEAUTIFUL!!!:) I just got a beardie about two months ago from pets smart (probably shoulda gotten one from a breeder) and he's just grown a lot! Yours are giant compared to my little one
McKenna Estelle petsmart and Petco ect...they all are trash when it comes to dragons. They feed thare dragons cale for fuxk sake....good luck wish you the best!
If you want you can make a lay bin in her tank in case she want to lay her eggs. Sometimes when the beardy is big you can't really feel the eggs that well.
Michel Behrends sHey him we will be I just like to go away because it short it’s just short so I love I love you videos and I’m getting a bill dragon soon for a birthday and I hope you are you subscribe to are you channels because you’re my favorite TH-cam by
Hi! I know it's been a while since you posted, but on the off chance you're still around, I wanted to specifically ask you this because you are the most obviously knowledgeable one I've come across on here. Anyway... My female is VERY ready to lay her first ever clutch (and yes, I had her unknowingly housed with a male so she's likely not going to lay duds). Now, it took me and bf a while to figure out what was going on. We are first time owners, but we are diligent in our research and once we discover something like this, we get 100% on it. So it is apparent to me now that she's been ready for the last few days. Tonight she has been particularly feisty. She keeps trying to burrow/dig under the substrate we have (which is just felt), she waves her hand at us through the glass and tries to climb the sides, she didn't eat for a while, and so on. My question is fairly simple though: In the event of an emergency, where Lowe's and Home Depot, etc. are closed for the day, is it OK to use anything else at all? Some kind of soil with no chemicals perhaps? I imagine she could probably survive overnight, but I'm a worrier when it comes to my animals--I want to know she's alright in her lay bin so I myself can rest tonight. Please wb if you happen to see this. TIA.
Our beardie is now digging. I came across this video, very helpful. I used to work at lowes and playsand is on sale for the 4th! Item#10392. The only question I have is what temp the water should be to form sand
Michael, there is not a day that goes by that I don't cry since I missed the signs that my beardie is gravid with unfertilized eggs. Has dystocia. Nowhere does it say that a female bearded dragon could be scratching at corners because she has eggs. Nobody ever told me that so I never had a light box for her because I did not know females could get pregnant without having been with a male. In the bearded dragon general care videos, people need to discuss how important it is to not always blame everything improper lighting or lack of vitamins or lack of proper hydration. Sometimes a bearded dragon will stop eating, become lethargic and claw at the corners because she's got eggs! Please tell your beardie friends. If you provide a light box then if your beard he has eggs, she will have a place to go and they will not get stuck in her. I'm sorry for sounding angry but I'm angry at myself and that there are not enough vids on this topic. Even the vet didn't warn me for what to look for during her well visit check ups!! Husband won't pay the 1,400 for surgery to get the eggs out. Any advice is welcome.
Your the bomb man all of your lizards or geckos are awesome .I'm starting to get into the hobby of lizards.I don't have any yet but I'm starting .Where do you get your lizards from when you get them in the mail so I can bye some
I've been watching your videos for a while now and you have great information and beautiful beardies! My female dragon has a runny nose and I was hoping you can help me find out why. Thank you
nice video! i made my beardie a lay box and put her in ,but she jump right out and would rather dig in her husk dig box(in the tank), burry herself and she has been slept inside for 5 days, dont know she is trying to lay eggs or just want to brumate, >
Also I have a container that a baked chicken so it's fairly good sized can I put it in my enclosure to see if she's wanting to dig then if so then put her in a laying bin? Not sure if she was just getting her a hole dug in her substrate to bask or what..
Raimundo Roman She'll probably stop eating and get more active. Then she'll start digging and scratching in her cage. You should move her to a lay box as soon as she starts digging
I got pretty confused with your recommendations for feeding a pregnant female bearded dragon. How i understood it is to feed her after the laying but during it not to feed her at all. Mine has just started to eat vegetables at 2 years old (was mainly fed on meal worms and woodies at the old owners home. So is it okay to still feed her a normal mixed diet of veggies and meats scince she has never actually eaten veggies before 2 weeks ago with me? in other words can you please post what you feed your dragons piror, mid and after laying. Thanks
Darcy Piper I would feed her greens in the morning before she wants to start digging and in the evening once she is done digging for the day If she is in the process of laying don't feed her until after she is done laying
I don't if you read my last comment but I will post it again. Can you make a quick video on your experience of housing multiple females and how you introduce a new female beardie to an enclosure? Thanks much appreciated!
My dragon is in the bin for 4 days she digs like 20% of the time and about 60% of time she is just trying to get out the bin and the other 20% she is basking, like what could be wrong or should i just leave her inside
So I have a Citrus Sunburst female that I have been breeding to a German Giant Green Pastel, but the Pastel passed away. So now I'm looking to buy a new mate for my Citrus and I was wondering what you thing would best pair up with her. I was thinking about a dunner but I wasn't sure. I will be going to the reptile super show in downtown SD this Nov. 2-3 and that's when I plan to buy the new berdie. It would be great if you could get back to me with this. Thank you.
Do they do this without ever mating with a male? My girl has been acting really strange she’s not even a year old she’s been digging every time I bring her out she has never had this behavior before
HeyItsZoie What I would recommend, is keep a look out for her behavior. If her beard starts turning black, she’s ovulating & ready to breed. Afterwards, I would check in with a veterinarian & ask if she’s in that egg laying state. But always watch out for her behavior.
I'm making one because my girl is tearing her finger nails off and bleeding everywhere. I know she isn't fertile because she was seperated from my male but she is cycling her eggs. this happened earlier this year, she kept scratching in the corner than I found eggs laying there.
I’m thinking about getting a female bearded dragon and I have a few questions, do bearded dragons alone lay eggs?, what age do they start? Can you list some of the materials? Should I keep her in my garage when she is going to lay eggs, how much should I feed her? Should I keep one of the babys with the mom? And if there is anything else I need to know please tell me Thanks!
hi everyone i just got a juvenile girl and i have a male large dragon. he was bobbing his head all the time and she is waving t him but after a few days they seem to be getting along very nice. do i need to worry about her laying eggs or no?
My beardie isn’t gravid.. because she hasn’t been around a male. But she has been trying to dig in her tank a lot and hasn’t been eating.. any suggestions
Do females dig in their cage just to be digging? I haven't put a lay box in she's 2 I've only had her 4 days so I don't know her habits yet..she's been in with her male since they were babies but previous owner said she's never laid eggs
Hey micheal my beardie laid 23 eggs about 2 weeks ago and she bounced back with her weight very fast. So I put her in with my male today and as soon a I put her in he ran Over and started biting her on the neck and then he just stopped. I left them together all day I watched them most of te time and I'm pretty sur they didn't breed. I was wondering if you had any tips on how to get them to breed. I was also wondering how long u keep them together and how long you separate them. Thanks.
Its my first beardie and she has infirtle eggs I have no idea what I’m doing and running low on money I have a bin and sand but I don’t have top soil or children’s sand help me out pls
Remember everyone impaction only happens when you feed your bearded dragon on a sand substrate it doesn’t get impacted right away just by being on sand just for you people who’s Dragon is nesting and are afraid to use sand
My beardi is in the bin the second day now, i did a mountain on one side but she is keep digging on the side where theres almost no sand, what can i do
Hey Michel hopefully your reading this, if you are I have a question for you. I have a baby bearded dragon and I posted a few videos on it like how it behaves but I know that your a breeder and you probly experienced this with one of your beardys but can you explain to me why my beardy is so aggressive to me. plzzzzzzzzzz.
hey i have a beardy female she is 7 months old and is pregent she trys digging and scratching on class to get out and she is getting fatter i allso can feel the eggs on her belly but she is not eating now she is housed with a nuther male and he will eat and eat and eat and she dose not eat nothing as i can tell so far eny way can u please help meeee
pinhead crickets is your best option, why? Because the pinhead crickets fecal matter inside them is what a baby bearded dragon needs to start accumulating certain bacteria to help the digest things such as veggies!
I have one female my vet told me that I should consider spaying or get a male to her eggs aren't gravid or get that way because during his practice him and his colleagues found females need a male presence to produce good eggs
Hi man my bearded dragons look like they want to lag eggs and they r all ways digging and one of my females has a hard belly and can u look at my vid and help me out thanks
I think my beardie is gravid but she hasn't mated - we're complete novices and only realized our bearded was a female this morning (we were told she was male, sexed her using your other video and he is a female) She's been digging in her viv every day for the past few days, her belly is fatter then it should be (we thought he was just getting fat) but we can't feel any eggs in the belly when pressing (very gently). We set up a small bin in a washing up bowl but not sure it's ok! Advice please!

7:25 the indoor flood lamp i tried doesn't heat up at all, actually less then a regular light bulb.
I use a 100 watt basking light but my female is big at 4 years old
Mine seems to stop digging takes a break warms up and goes back to digging
You care for your beardies so much, it is so inspiring
Hi! I know it's been a while since you posted, but on the off chance you're still around, I wanted to specifically ask you this because you are the most obviously knowledgeable one I've come across on here. Anyway...
My female is VERY ready to lay her first ever clutch (and yes, I had her unknowingly housed with a male so she's likely not going to lay duds).

I love your vids Michel , my bearded dragon is gravid right now , and you have helped me so much ❤️😁
Awesome video and I think coconut fiber mixed with sand would be a pretty good mixture.
Dude ... you make THE MOST AWESOME PREGNANCY COACH...!!! What an amazing man you are...!!! 👍💋💕
Our beardie is now digging. I came across this video, very helpful. I used to work at lowes and playsand is on sale for the 4th! Item#10392. The only question I have is what temp the water should be to form sand
I have my male and female in the same tank, my female is gravid... should I separate them..?
What to do if the sand collapses on top of bearded dragon?
Michael, there is not a day that goes by that I don't cry since I missed the signs that my beardie is gravid with unfertilized eggs. Has dystocia.

I have a TH-cam channel, and because of you I want to make vids on my beardies
You still didnt do it
I've been watching your videos for a while now and you have great information and beautiful beardies! My female dragon has a runny nose and I was hoping you can help me find out why. Thank you

Very helpful
I love your channel
Also I have a container that a baked chicken so it's fairly good sized can I put it in my enclosure to see if she's wanting to dig then if so then put her in a laying bin? Not sure if she was just getting her a hole dug in her substrate to bask or what..
How do u kno when there ready to lay eggs
Raimundo Roman fr
Raimundo Roman She'll probably stop eating and get more active. Then she'll start digging and scratching in her cage. You should move her to a lay box as soon as she starts digging
My female started pacing back and forth in her tank a lot sure sign she's ready to dig
jk ernest mine started digging in different spots today ;-;
I got pretty confused with your recommendations for feeding a pregnant female bearded dragon. How i understood it is to feed her after the laying but during it not to feed her at all.

Darcy Piper I would feed her greens in the morning before she wants to start digging and in the evening once she is done digging for the day
If she is in the process of laying don't feed her until after she is done laying
So after her first clutch of eggs, keep her in there for another month?
You truly are the best breeder, you know all your beardies name ;)
Hey Michel my bearded dragon has droopy eye lids and I was wondering if this is bad please answer
I don't if you read my last comment but I will post it again. Can you make a quick video on your experience of housing multiple females and how you introduce a new female beardie to an enclosure? Thanks much appreciated!
My dragon is in the bin for 4 days she digs like 20% of the time and about 60% of time she is just trying to get out the bin and the other 20% she is basking, like what could be wrong or should i just leave her inside
How long should you leave them in for to dig ???
My bearded started digging but then she stops. How long are beardies pregnant before she actually lay the eggs??
When are you suppose to put them in the tub? Help
You put them in the tub when they start running around the tank trying to dig somewhere. This should happen 4-6 weeks after mating.
So I have a Citrus Sunburst female that I have been breeding to a German Giant Green Pastel, but the Pastel passed away. So now I'm looking to buy a new mate for my Citrus and I was wondering what you thing would best pair up with her. I was thinking about a dunner but I wasn't sure. I will be going to the reptile super show in downtown SD this Nov. 2-3 and that's when I plan to buy the new berdie. It would be great if you could get back to me with this. Thank you.
My female is Gravid for the 1st time. Is a ceramic bulb sufficient or a bad idea when using to heat the bin up for her?
hi Michel I am wanting to get a bearded dragon and I was woundering, if I have 50 gallon tank what wattage do I use. Thank You
Do they do this without ever mating with a male? My girl has been acting really strange she’s not even a year old she’s been digging every time I bring her out she has never had this behavior before
Thanks!
Yes, 8 out of 22 eggs are fertile. Hopefully her next clutch will be all fertile.
If I get a girl beardie does she lay eggs on the regular, if she does when will she and do I have to do this every time. Thanks!
HeyItsZoie What I would recommend, is keep a look out for her behavior. If her beard starts turning black, she’s ovulating & ready to breed. Afterwards, I would check in with a veterinarian & ask if she’s in that egg laying state. But always watch out for her behavior.
So cool how lizereds do that I have a baby beardy
Does the sand need to be moist ? Or will just regular dry sand work ?
tyler bridgman moist so if you squeezed it it should hold its shape but not leak water
I'm making one because my girl is tearing her finger nails off and bleeding everywhere. I know she isn't fertile because she was seperated from my male but she is cycling her eggs. this happened earlier this year, she kept scratching in the corner than I found eggs laying there.

They are infertile eggs
hi everyone i just got a juvenile girl and i have a male large dragon. he was bobbing his head all the time and she is waving t him but after a few days they seem to be getting along very nice. do i need to worry about her laying eggs or no?

As if so then probably
I miss you, wish you upload more
My beardie isn’t gravid.. because she hasn’t been around a male. But she has been trying to dig in her tank a lot and hasn’t been eating.. any suggestions
Sometimes bearded dragons lay eggs that aren’t fertile
How much water do you normally put in the play sand? Do you measure?
Again nice vid
wow she's really cute I'm that's awesome how they dig like that!
Do females dig in their cage just to be digging? I haven't put a lay box in she's 2 I've only had her 4 days so I don't know her habits yet..she's been in with her male since they were babies but previous owner said she's never laid eggs
How do u know when they need to go in the tub to lay eggs r there and signs?
Nice video my friend
What lighting do you use for your beardies how many watts ?
No not yet. Hopefully tomorrow

SketchedOutKat wall as he's has eggs in her yes but if shes laying at that moment no

Remember everyone impaction only happens when you feed your bearded dragon on a sand substrate it doesn’t get impacted right away just by being on sand just for you people who’s Dragon is nesting and are afraid to use sand

Hey Michel hopefully your reading this, if you are I have a question for you.
I have a baby bearded dragon and I posted a few videos on it like how it behaves but I know that your a breeder and you probly experienced this with one of your beardys but can you explain to me why my beardy is so aggressive to me. plzzzzzzzzzz.

i cant find this sand at home depot or Lowes wish you could show the brand and bag
Zack Dalton it's childs play sand "Sakrete"
Sakrete play sand at home depot.
Play sand 50# at lowes in a clear bag with orange/red and green colors. Item#10392
pinhead crickets is your best option, why? Because the pinhead crickets fecal matter inside them is what a baby bearded dragon needs to start accumulating certain bacteria to help the digest things such as veggies!
the berded dragons could dieeeeeeeee do here me dieeeeeeee
What incubator do you use?
I love the gtfo of here look I get whenever I enter the room to see how one of my pregnant girls are doing in the bin
Did the eggs turn out good
I have one female my vet told me that I should consider spaying or get a male to her eggs aren't gravid or get that way because during his practice him and his colleagues found females need a male presence to produce good eggs
to make sure
It will and all she does is start all over again.
How do you tell if your female beardie is gravid?
They will start to dig in their substrate (whether you have sand or not, they willl try) and they will look fatter with small bumps o their belly
Thanks!
When my bear die is gravid what if they they there eggs when they are asleep
What's the sand's name?
How much water should I put?
Gilbertdinho 17 and what temperature. I am assuming not cold water. .
Hi man my bearded dragons look like they want to lag eggs and they r all ways digging and one of my females has a hard belly and can u look at my vid and help me out thanks
I need a bearded dragon
Why are pinkies frowned upon for feeding?
- Symphonix - it's hard for bearded dragons to digest it, they don't eat rodents in the wild.
What is a pinkie?
A really small mouse. When they're born they are pink.
k thx
I think my beardie is gravid but she hasn't mated - we're complete novices and only realized our bearded was a female this morning (we were told she was male, sexed her using your other video and he is a female)
She's been digging in her viv every day for the past few days, her belly is fatter then it should be (we thought he was just getting fat) but we can't feel any eggs in the belly when pressing (very gently). We set up a small bin in a washing up bowl but not sure it's ok! Advice please!
I think that most lizards even when not pregnant naturally produce eggs and they have to empty them out.sorry if this is late
How long did it take her to dig the first hole?
Oh and my female does push-ups but she doesn't wave. Are any of your females like that ?
Her name is delta
My ones name is charlie
I have one
Are you selling any bearded dragons
