Hi!
I have a two year old beaded dragon that sleeps all day and everyday, i know thats normal sometimes, however, its been almost a year!!!!! Since july of last year, he has been sleeping, not active at all, not eating much and not pooping much either. Honestly its been probably 2 months since he last pooped. I took him to the vet already, he said no metabolic disease but left with no answers and a $300 bill! i cant afford to take him back again and not get answes again. I dont want to try to keep feeding him if he hasnt pooped, but i dont want him to starve to death. His temp inside the tank is about 90 he also has a uv light, i leave it on even tho he spends the entire day under his cave. I have been taking him out a couple times a week, but he just wants to find a hidding spot and hide feom the sun. I have tried giving him a warm bath and prunes which has worked before, but not this
time. Im wondering if he has parasite, is this the behavior typical of that? What is going on? Ive never owned any reptiles and im feeling super down because I dont know what to do. I feel as if i should give him away to someone who knows more because ive been super stressed out about this. I dont want him to die
