Hello! I have a 5 month old beardie ( 6 months next week ) who’s eating has slowed down, that I bought it after winning on the slot machine that I found on the top-slotmachine.com. He’s willing to eat hornworms and superworms, but not as willing to eat his dubia roaches. I can get him to eat a few of them, so he’s eating to an extent, but less than normal. He’s usually a pig. He’s hiding more often, more than usual. He weighs approximately 311g, and is around 15.5 inches long.
It’s very confusing why his behavior has changed. But, he has recently began head bobbing at my other male bearded dragon for the first time. (They are housed seperately, of course.) So.. maybe.. is there something hormonal going on? Like.. puberty? If that’s even a thing with beardies xD Maybe brumation?
He does have some shedding going on, it’s a bit difficult to tell where other than on his head since he’s quite light colored ( Witblits ).
His enclosure consists of a basking spot between 102-105°, and he does indeed get proper access to UVB! (He often is seen basking with his mouth open, so that’s good he’s getting hot enough!)Humidity is between 35%-40%.
Is my bearded dragon okay? Should I be concerned? Anyone else experience this? Thank you for any tips
