My beardie named Solstice is roughly eight months old now and has done "questionable" things in my opinion. She had a schedule that she since drifted from, instead of pooping in the bath every day she has taken up every other day. Idk what that may mean but I have the latest lights, she basks for most of the day so I know it's not a digesting issue. Her diet consists of the dandelion greens I can get her to eat, about six super worms, five wax worms, five butter worms and 40 phoenix worms. Sometimes she'll also it butternut squash. At the moment I'm waiting for more phoenix worms and butter worms, could that have changed anything? Also, she doesn't care much for people besides me, she hisses at puffs her beard out at other people. The help is greatly appreciated!

As they get older they take longer to digest and can take longer between poos.

It's unrelated but she has a rather high fat diet currently. She might not be super motivated to eat greens and salad if she is getting nice and full. I'd reduce the butters/waxworms for sure and maybe the supers too. If you can get crickets or roaches in there it would be a pretty nice and varied diet.

Alright thanks for the feedback, I'll try less of the butter and wax worms, maybe she'll start eating her phoenix worms then :p as for the super worms, I only feed her that many becuz she doesn't eat the greens on her own so while she's chewing I slip one into her mouth and she eats it then, obviously I'm careful when doing so, as I don't want to choke her or make her quit eating the super worms all together

Superworms are not a good staple, they should only be fed as treats after they are between 14 and 16 months of age.
Wax worms are like "crack" to dragons at any age. Dragons will turn their nose up at a good meal just to hold out for them.
I guess it is all in perception, depending on how you want to do things. I feed my dragon (3yrs old) superworms only as treats about twice a month and she only gets 3 at a time.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
