Hello there. I need some help or some information of what to do about my bearded dragon. 14 months old, female. Around June this year she started acting weird. Eating once a week or two, her bowel movements slowed down as well. It has been going on up till now. She started eating a bit more recently, however she is still not as before. We were thinking she might want to brumate, and we also took her to the vet (which said that she looks healthy). We are still outstanding a stool sample, but that happens rarely.
Recently she started eating every second day, but she doesn't eat any sort of vegetables/greens (which she used to do before June). She is acting very lazy, but very aware. We are taking her out of the tank to interact a bit with her surroundings, but she has like a spot or two where she goes and tries to go to sleep instead.
To give you a few details about my vivarium (I might be doing something wrong). I'm using a paper substrate, 4ft vivarium with a thermostat with a T8 uvb lamp. The basking area has an average temperature of around 37° Celsius, 33 in the middle, and 26-27 in the cold section. She has a 12 hour cycle on night and day.
We tried a reptoboost solution, plus giving her liquid calcium, but they don't seem to help her. We usually give her powdered calcium on her veggies and bugs, but as she stopped eating we couldn't give her anymore this way.
Thanks
