Is it possible that it has retained a pair of eggs? Just an idea. I had a beardie that did this.



I've heard that you can give them a few drops of olive oil or something along those lines as a laxative to help get the impaction hopefully broken down and moving through a little better. Definately don't try this though unless you get someone else's opinion first.



Also, if you have it on sand, calci-sand, walnut bedding(basically anything it can fit in its mouth) move it off of that onto paper towels. Its quite likely that it is calcium deprived(like you speculated) and will try to consume anything in order to recieve the calcium it needs.



Thats absolutely rediculous that someone would let this animal live like this, its lucky it found its way to someone who cares.
