Hello,
My brother got a beardie, probably nto more than 3 months old, from petco. I was with him at the store and he seemed completely fine, even after taking him home, he was fine and ate some phoenix worms and a few crickets, and after that we bathe him, but the bath seemed to have literally stunned him!
Right now, 25 min after bath, still on his basking spot not moving one inch, breathing pretty rapidly and sometimes will pause, look at me and dont breath for a bit, then breath fast again. Did he eat too much maybe? or the food and the bath was too much? He seemed very social, I even hand fed him 2 crickets. But now he just seems paralyzed. He's eyes are open and he is alert, but twists his body a bit to look at me and stays that way
I have all the right equipment too. T8 uvb and basking spot 108F right now. He seemed fine until he ate and then took a bath. help!
