BMs during brumation

How often should a beardie pass a bm if brumating? He’s not eating and is spending time on the cool side of his tank. He will eat bugs however, just not salad. He will move around if I take him out, but ultimately just looks to hide under something to take a nap (as usual). I’m worried he has a partial obstruction, but he did have two bms last week after I bathed him and gave him water orally. I don’t think he has eaten since then, and I know it’s normal for them not to. So do they not poop during brumation too?

If they are not eating they will not poop -- older dragons poop less often - I have 2 of them one is going on 4 and the other 3 - they usually dont poop for 3 weeks to a month - that is when they are eating --- less when the appetite slows down --

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.
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
