Ok so my beardie was acting sluggish and lethargic a couple of days ago and we thought he was just cold because his tank was next to a window so we moved the tank and everything was fine after that he was eating and active. But about two hours ago he all of a sudden stop moving and stopped breathing so we thought he was dead he has a black beard and we were concerned about that but after about 20 minutes of being in a shoe box he started to breath and move again and now hes back to not breathing or moving his eyes aren't moving either and his mouth is slightly open. Please help I don't know whats wrong.....

Can you go over your basic husbandry? UVB lighting, temps, tank size, substrate. Also, feeders, supplements & calcium, age of your beardie. Is it possible he's brumating? (I don't know much about it, just an idea.) Any other changes/symptoms? Has he been taken to a vet?

He died last night about 20 minutes after I posted to the discussion board. There is no emergency reptile vets or even vets that deal with reptiles in the town where we live so we couldn't really do anything for him.
