Hi there and welcome to the site!

14 is definitely up there in beardie age. Congratulations on that! Have you had him his whole life?

Well just like humans and age, it can happen a number a ways. The best you can hope for really is that they just start to slow down and pass peacefully in their sleep once night. Sometimes they will get sick in their old age as their bodies aren't as able as they once were. And sometimes organs fail with age. There really is no way of knowing how or when obviously.

By the way we would love to see pictures and hear more details about your buddy :)

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
