My bearded dragon is 2 months old, ive had her for a week (since halloween), and all she does is sit on top of her tree (which is her basking spot) whichi is between 90 - 100 degrees, and she barely eats always sleeps, then when i take her out she usualy runs back to her cage glass surfing the outside basicly telling me she wants to go back in, and then when i remove her tree when i try to feed her she starts going nuts glass surfing the glass, any tips?? im really worried...

It is getting to that time of year where they might start brumating. Just make sure she is pooping and generally healthy and she should be ok.

Sorry but this is not brumation.

A 2 month old hatchling should be much more active and be getting 3 MEALS of live HIGH QUALITY insects per day , and eating you out of house and home as well as actively chasing and catching the insects as they are dropped into his tank (a few at a time).

How heavy is she ?
How often are you weighing her ?
(I recommend once a week and keep a chart).

How are you measuring the temperatures ?
where is the probe for the thermometer situated ?

UV - exactly what are you using ?
brand,
type (compact coil, T8 tube, T5ho tube, MVB),
wattage,
%UVB rating,
how is it installed (in a dome, in a reflector hood , in domestic fixture (with plastic screen), mounted where (ontop ot under the mesh lid),
and how far from the basking spot.

What are using for a heat/basking globe ?

What is the feeding schedule ?

What is her diet ?

Show us photos of the dragon and the lights and the tank.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
