is that gauze thing the vet put on her vent blocking her entire vent? If its interfering with her ability to pass things through the vent, that could be why she hasn't lain any eggs...Most vets put a stitch or two around the vent to help keep a prolapse from occuring again.
However, the fact she had a prolapse could indicate she is having troubles passing fecal matter and/or eggs.
I suggest a warm soak, 10-20 minutes is good, to help hydrate your dragon.
Stop using the Preparation H and Metamucial, those are not meant for reptiles and probable end up doing more harm than good. Offer pureed carrots, summer squash, or sweet potato, about a teaspoon (level). These will be more useful to deal with constipation than the Metamucial stuff. ----- PHLdyPayne
