I'm new to this site and have learned a lot from reading the topics in the different forums but think I need your help now! I have had my beardie, Ms. Billy Jean who is about 1 and a half years old, for about 2 weeks now. She came from my sister in law and was previously in a 40 gallon glass terrarium. I purchased a 4x2x2 and set up a basking spot but she refuses to sit on the warm stone! She likes a high spot on a branch close to the UVB but the temps there aren't sufficient. She is black all the time, including at least some darkness to her beard, and doesn't poo unless I put her in a warm bath and even that isn't a given. I've bathed her probably 5 times now and have only gotten two (extremely large) poos this whole time. She seems to eat well and likes to dig on occasion. I've taken her outside to bask in the sun and she seems to like that and to explore a little.
I'm not sure if I've just changed her life too drastically (as she was never bathed or taken to bask outside and I've changed her home) and she needs more of an adjustment period? Or if I need to implement more changes to get her on her basking rock. I hate to take that branch away as it's her favorite place.
Thanks for your help!

And if someone can tell me how to post pics I'll post one of her and her terrarium.
***Update*** She finally pood on her own in the terrarium but it's a lumpy, large watery blob
