My beardie has been ill for a long time and I think today he has finally passed away. He is completely limp and did not react when I put my finger in his mouth. I just want to be 100% sure before I prepare him to be cremated. Thank you.

Hello,

I am so sorry about your dragon. :cry: That is an awful thing to have to go through.
You should be able to see his sides go in & out, if you watch closely enough. If he
hasn't moved at all, you can try flipping him on his back to see if you get any type
of reaction from him. If not, then he has likely passed.

Yes he passed. I may not have been ready but he was. Thank you you have always been a tremendous help. I do plan on getting another but I will not make the mistake of buying one from a corporation petstore again.

I am so very sorry. Hugs. The pain is so real when they pass... I believe with all my heart, that he is in a peaceful place.

Thank you. Me as well. Unfortunately I did most of my mourning when he was still here but now I'm just happy he is no longer in pain. You and everyone else on here have always been a great help.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
