bearded dragon laying eggs?

[Fred]

So I adopted 3 bearded dragons this past July. Two females and one male. I already had one male that is atleast 5 years in age. I housed the older female of three years with him for about month until they started showing aggression towards eachother. I then seperated them a month ago and paired her up with another male of 2 years. Now she seems to be laying eggs(12) 9 of them I threw out because she trampled all over them and they were extremely deformed. She didn't take care of them at all. I was wondering if the male in the same tank as her might have affected her or if they aren't eggs at all. If they are not; I have no idea what they would be. I just removed the male she was with to see if that would change anything. Does anybody have any thoughts on this?

Pictures please the more we can see the better we can help you

if they were housed together, then it is possible she layed eggs..

I have no idea what the male is, but the female is very light coloured with a very orange beard. I believe that is sandfire. I'll go take some pictures. I should have them up shortly

if you don't know the lineage it may be hard to tell, certain scales may give clues but it would still be hard.. sounds like it may have some translucent or hypo in there somewhere.

most sandfires i've seen have been very orange/red in color, but all over their body? :?

anyways, yes get some pics, let us know

they will drop eggs fertile of not....

so they could be good eggs.

I was thinking that they are infertile too. Any ideas why the eggs go yellow?
Here's some pictures.

Yeah, they didn't look too good, like the surface was thin. Maybe she didn't have enough calcium to make a good shell? :?

It's great she passed them. I've read about lizards refusing to lay their eggs because of the substrate and withholding them caused their death.

Glad in that way I adopted a male water dragon.
