My bearded dragon has been so back and forth. 1 week she will sleep, not eat and avoids all lights. Another week she is running around basking and eating. She hasn’t lost any weight and She has had 4 sets of x rays and only thing found is arthritis in both of her back knees. She had a ultra sound and it was normal. I work at a animal hospital with a exotic vet but unfortunately our hospital doesn’t deal with exotic animals and we don’t have equipment for blood work to be done. Her bones are excellent and no signs of MBD. Does anyone know why a beardie would just sleep for a long period of time for no reason? My doctor has researched and researched but nothing can explain her sleep habit. Her backing area stays between 98-90 degrees (large basking platform to bask at temps that she wants all under UVB)
replaced uvb bulbs last month.
