Question
my bearded dragon has been burying for a while now,when tiding up the tank i noticed that she has buried 10 eggs but they seem to have gone all squashed looking,one in particular looks yolky,does this mean that they are infertile and we have no hope with these ones.Is it best to move her away from the male beardy whilst she is laying her eggs,this is our second time of her laying eggs with no hope with the first batch as we didn't know what to do with them.

Answer
you need to buy an incubator, keep em moist with the right tamp, and well i want to sound as professional as possible but of course the male must be moved away, he will eat the eggs and kill them. incubate them the right way, the ones that look healthy and keep em moist with the right temp. i cannot tell you for sure but you are not an experienced breeder at all from what i can see and i honestly for the dragons safety that you shouldn't breed yet. you do not know what you need or what to do, this is not good at all. All i can tell you is wait to breed when you are ready and have everything, don't want to listen to me? then you will keep having dead eggs.
