First off, i agree witjh beardielover123 --- do your homework!!! did you say a 50 gallon tank with 2 adult beardieS? thats wrong in so many different ways!! 1 adult beardie minimum tank size is 50 gallon, but prefereably 75 gallon!! 2 adults in there is WAY too crammed! You need to seperate them also because keeping a male and female together is NOT a good idea, even if you plan to breed them! The male will stress the female out WAY too much, and the female will get sick and very stressed. You need to do research.



Well... **Sigh**... in answer to your question...i do just potting soil and moist sand as a laying material, and take the eggs out into vermiculite/perlite.



They probably arnt breeding for many reasons. The female is definetly not ready, as she is most likely very stressed with constantly having the male there.



A Brumation period is often necessary in order to breed dragons.







Please, before having to take care of up to 25 hungry mouths that eat thousands and thousands of crickets a week (not including light/electric bills, veggies, fecals for vet, lighting units/lightbulbs both UVB and basking, and housing) you must get your husbandry right with the adults
