Ok so i had my male beardie with the female for about 1 week now, They have mated several times and i do have pics if interested in seeing the love, haha. I just am not sure when it should be enough. I have been told to leave them together for only a few days and some have said 2-3 weeks. So i am at a week and have seen them several times. I do have a sheet over the whole tank so they do have their privacy. I just want to be sure one this when to remove the male. I don't want to take him to early or to late. Thanks in advance for the help.

I have had beardies for years, just trying to start breeding this year, along with my leos, so just making sure all goes well.

If you have seen them breed multiple times, then I am pretty positive that she will be gravid. I think it is safe to say that you can remove the male now, too much breeding will stress out the female. If you left him in there, she will spend the whole time she should be using to gain weight for the eggs being stressed out, and that's not good. It also only takes one breeding to get multiple clutches of eggs. I think it's safe to take him out now.
