I have had my beardie for about 13 months now, shes been perfectly healthy the whole time. Lots of energy always moving , everything normal. i gave her water nutrients and her food powdered a few times a weeek. Everything was good till 3 days ago when she started staying still almost all day , and her eyes are sucked in her head slightyly. She just has no energy and wont eat. I HOPE SOMEBODY CAN TELL ME WHAT MIGHT BE THE PROBLEM< THANX.

Sounds like she's gonna lay eggs to me. Mine wouldn't eat and mom thought she was gonna kick the bucket (Thought mine was male till now) 3 days later 12 eggs were there!! Try putting her in a laying bin like people have told me and see if she digs. Does she scratch at the walls? Dig at the ground? How long has she not been eating? Is she pear shaped? Does she have a spot to dig?

Hi,
It kind of sounds like she is dehydrated because when their eyes suck into their head that's a major sign. Try soaking her in lukewarm water up to her shoulders every other day for at least 15 minutes each time. Good luck

It sounds like she could be very sick. Take her to the vet.

This sounds like a few different issues but you will not know until you take her to a vet. I don't want to scare you but we had a mail that had similar symptoms and we took him to the vet. Not a good outcome, but we did medicate the remaining 3 and they are going great. Go to a vet
