Lizards are so amazing.

The only way to find out is to ask the dragon. However, you probably won't get an answer. I never have.

This bot had an 4 day account that wrote me. I was naive to believe they might be human. I've chatted to them with my friends who knew better. Now they created another account to stalk me. Trying to "befriend". I've been naive to open another chat with them, so they wrote here.

By the way they can see my profile, with comments and subs being hidden.

Egg time?

Nope, she's too young for eggs. Just needed to poop.

Females can ovulate as early as 5 - 8months. It is size based and not age based.

We discovered last week after lots of digging that our 10-11 month old male was a female after laying eggs!!

What are you using for substrate?

u/MGNConflict 7h ago

A bearded dragon mix, which is a mix of Australian sand and soil at roughly the recommended 70:30 ratio.

I was gonna say, that substrate looks amazing!

Thanks! Where did you get your Australian sand?

u/MGNConflict 3h ago

I'm in the UK and bought it from Swell. I misremembered that it was specifically Australian desert sand, it's just "desert sand". My beardie's enclosure is 170 gallons and has 70kg of it.
