My beardie has been eating fine in the past, a couple of mealworms, some crickets, vegetables(lettuce, squash) but today he stopped eating. I've tried everything that he used to eat, but nothing. My dad recently started feeding him more crickets, and less of everything else(he started feeding him more mealworms as well, but mainly crickets). He doesn't get bowel movements much(about every week or so). I bathe him once a week, I use a dropper everyday. I also make sure to let him roam around my room at least every other day. I use one of the long uvb lamps(idk what they're called, I'm sorry) but idk if I should be worried or anything. His temperature is normal, and his sleeping cycle is normal. He doesn't seem to be lethargic, and there's nothing noticeably different about him.

How old is he? It's a good sign that his behavior is normal and he seems alert. It's possible he's just going through a phase in which he's less hungry which happens. If you can upload and post some photos of him and his enclosure, it would be helpful. You can upload photos here https://www.beardeddragon.org/useruploads/ and post them to your thread using the XIMG button when you reply.

yes please post pics of the tank and lighting -- and PLEASE NO MORE Lettuce ----- it has no nutritional value --- he needs greens like collard turnip mustard -- squash is good too like butternut zucchini and yellow---- you can try fruit as well NO CITRUS tho ---- how old is the UVB in the tank ---?

Beardies can get spoiled when feed insects to much and wont eat anything else(mine did for months) and insects are more calorie dense and harder to digests so he may just be not as hungry because he's full of bugs.

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.
