I had thought MAYBE my bearded dragon was pregnant but I didn't know for sure because I wasn't trying to breed but I just looked in the cage and I have 8 eggs!!!! But what do I do????
Is there anything special I need to do, will she take care of them how long does it take to hatch, will they hatch.... i'm so excited and freaked out!!!!! help!!!!

I am guessing they are infertile unless you have a male with your female, but if they havent already shriveled up because of the lack of moisture, then you can try and incubate them.

If you dont have an incubator already set up, the eggs are probably never going to be any good as you wont be able to keep them at the right temp and humidity sitting out in the cage. And an incubator should be set up a good 24 hours before eggs are laid so it can stabalize.

Look in the archives here and you will be able to find tons on incubating the eggs for next time. Good luck.

lol same thing just happend to me- my bds mated once and I didn't think my female was gravid but she just layed 20 eggs!

The eggs should be incubated at 81-84 degrees F. in moist vermiculite for 60-75 days

good luck and keep us posted
