my 2 year old female dragon died

One of my female dragons bred for the first time this year. She laid 21 eggs.
She never was the same afterward. Not wanting to drink or eat much. Last night I found her in laying in blood all around her.
Anyone have any idea what could have happened?

Id guess some sort of egg binding, how long has it been sense she laid?

How long between her laying eggs, you noticing she appeared "off" and her death was it; how much time passed?

Sorry to hear that. It is always a sad day when a dragon dies.

I breed leopard geckos, and there were a few females I have bred that just never fully recovered after the egg laying process and passed soon after. Without a necropsy, it's hard to guess what happened to your kid. Could she have been egg bound?

It had been about 2 weeks since she laid.

It had been about two weeks.

I wish I had have gotten a necropsy. I did open her to see if there were eggs and there were not.

Yes, it was a very sad day. She was so young, only two years old.

I put her in warm water after she laid and thought it strange that she didn't want to drink like all the others did. Then she ate very little. I would say it had been about 2 weeks afterward that she died.
