My female beardie hasn't pooped in almost a full week and is still eating like mad. What could be wrong? She's scaring me, she hunts great and isn't sleepy in the daytime. What should I do to get her to poop, I've tried soaking her. I would really like a reply this time.

Have you soaked your dragon in warm water for 20 minutes or more? 15 minute soakings are said not to be very useful. Also, down below is another thread just like this with the question from sunbirdx i believe... someone mentioned using mineral oil. Good luck!

Give her a drop or two (depending on size) of mineral oil. If that doesnt work, to the vet she goes!

Well I went to soak Freddy and thought well I should see if I can whoosh some water across her vent like you all said earlier and sure enough, not seconds later she pooped like (not exagerating) 1-2 cups of poop. She sounded relieved. And went about scurried around like normal. Lol. Thanks everyone
