Beardie Eggs

Question
Hello, my 2 1/2 year old beardie has *unexpectedly* laid 7 eggs but lost three. My exotic vet personnel has told me that she may have been holding them for about 1 year or less, waiting for the right time and perfect substrate to lay them. I followed her strict instructions and took them out starting the incubation process. I am worried now because it has only been hours since i did this and one has died out of the 4 remaining eggs. The three left are caving and indented which i know happens when they are ready to hatch, problem is this seems too soon. Are they all dying? Or is this because of a late labor? Please respond A.S.A.P Thank you...

Answer
Hello, they do tend to dent but this will happen at anytime. The eggs are probably infertile which means they aren't good eggs and she may have never mated with a male. Keep the incubation process up and if they continue to die then they are bad eggs to begin with.
