I've had my beardie for about 2 months. He eats good, only crickets though. Two days ago I gave him bok choy & he loved it but since last night he hasn't eaten any crickets and only two small pieces of bok choy. This morning I noticed his tail was dark. What is going on?

Hi there, could you get a closer pic of the tail in better light ? It looks like it's just going to shed, very common for the tail to turn dark first.

The lack of appetite can coincide with shedding and it may also be that the bok choi is causing a bit of tummy bloat. Be sure that all bugs + most food items are smaller than the space between his eyes, to avoid potential impaction. He should be fine though. :)

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
