HELP!! My bearded dragon won’t go to the bathroom

Julietpantoulis · May 21, 2018

My bearded dragon is about 3 years old and he has been good about going to the bathroom before this but he has not gone to the bathroom in a few days I have tried prune baby food, baths, and rubbing his stomach and nothing has worked, any other suggestions.

How much has he been eating? Sometimes my Marta won't eat very much and then not poop for a couple of days, so it could be fine. Otherwise, I heard that olive oil sometimes does the trick. Hope he gets better!

Also, I forgot to ask, do you use sand or some other loose substrate? If you do, he could be impacted and you would have to remove it immediately and replace it with either temporary newspapers or paper towels, or run to the store and grab some tiles, non-adhesive shelf liner, or reptile carpet.

He eats still but he is on the green flooring can’t remember the name right now but thank you! Do you know how you would feed the olive oil to him?

I've never feed it to a beardie before but from what I've heard/read I'm pretty sure that you can just put it on a spoon and then if he won't eat that you can mix it in with some of the baby food.
