Bad egg laying time 
Today i thought id go snowboarding with the school. I did not expect my female to lay her eggs but of course they pick the day your not home and the baby sitter is home watching my little brother and parents are at work.. I came home from snowboarding and my dad said that he seen a couple eggs in the tank and he put them into the incubator.. There was 6 eggs all together 3 she cruched with her foot and 1 none fertilized and 2 look good but embryo might drown since it might not have been original position. It was her first lay so i did not expect any babys but i wish she would have used the egg laying box in her tank instead of just on her rock ledge.
Just thought id share this with you..

not to be rude or anything, but you knew that your dragons mated, and you should have been monitoring your female for when she was going to lay. i dont know if you ever answered my question- why did you breed them? do you have everything set up for 20+ babies for this one clutch?
you should watch her for more eggs, as she is likely to lay more.

yeah, that’s not many eggs, even for a first clutch, check to make sure she doesn’t have more, feel her belly. Were you monitoring her weight and such also?

i was monerating everything with her iv been watching her and the one day i decide to take a break she lays lol i have about 20 10 gallon tanks and 5 20 gallons, my dad used to use them when he bred angle fish. It just sucks that she didnt use the box because then i could have taken the eggs out.. And it looks like she might have more in her.
