My bearded dragon, Quagmire was my fiance's pet. Quagmire and I lost him 3 years ago. It was not easy but we helped each other through it.
The thing is Quagmire was already big when he came to us, that was at least 4 1/2 years ago. I dont know exactly how old he is. I read earlier that it takes 2 years for them to grow to full size,he so he could be 6-7 but he could also be older.
The last few days he mostly just kinda lays out flat doesnt want to open his eyes much. Also doesnt look like hes eating much, today he didnt touch his food at all. I gave him fruit instead this evening in case he just couldnt poop or something like that. He did lift his head up then, but it doesnt look like he touched it either. I took him out to see if he would perk up and his body seemed quite stiff he was not cold at all. I got him to open his eyes some (theyre not cloudy) but it almost looks like he's saying "why bother?"
Do these things sound like signs that maybe he is older and might not be around much longer? Say it isnt so?
