How old are they? She may be brumating. Also, you're not keeping the male and female living together all the time, right? That is a sure fire way to stress the crap out of your female.

i am not keeping in the same tank but there tanks are right next to each other she is about 2yrs coming this xmas. they can see each othere be they barly ever do.

thanks for ur help anout the blumating thing i will looki in to it more

iggy? as in iguana? I would suggest asking your question on the iguana forum instead of the bearded dragon. However, if she is spending all her time in her cave I would say it's a health issue and I wouldn't breed her till you discover what is wrong by taking her to a qualified vet and treat her.

Oops, did you mean an iguana? I just figured that was your dragons name. Disregard my post then, I don't know anything about iguanas.
