He’s still not wanting to bask very much. He will typically come out of his cave and eventually make it up to the basking spot but not stay there very long. His temperatures are usually are from 95 to 98 when he’s over to the side. And he often looks sleepy, especially in the afternoon. I know...

He is slowly losing weight. We do have a gradient available. We have a hammock that is angled upward so he can be at the bottom or top of it in order to get more heat. There’s a “pyramid” and a branch that he can utilize in the basking area as well. That’s the reason I thought maybe he didn’t...

Bloodwork and x-rays were normal?

He is still losing weight and not eating. We have tried pollen, reptaid, probiotics, every vegetable and bug you can think of. He will take some syringe food but very little usually a mix of critical care and baby food. he drinks water from a pipette and gets a bath every other day. He has had...

Oh ok. Yes we’ve been monitoring. As a total from 1/11 till now he’s lost 55g, 605 to 550g.

Hi. Thank you so much for your reply. We have gotten x-rays and bloodwork and both of came back normal. He has lost some weight since he woke up. He didn’t lose weight during the actual brumation. We were directed to give him critical care and baby food about 1-2 cc a day, no more than that...

He is still not eating on his own. We are at a loss. I researched and found out about probiotics and have used them. The only other thing we can think of...is the incandescent bulb too close for his comfort. Up until this enclosure we had domes sitting on top and therefore much further away. Any...

Ok we will do that. Where do we get the probiotics? Thank you!

Update: He pooped a few days ago and ate two crickets today! It has been 119 days since he has had any food on his own. It may have only been two crickets, but I guess it’s a start!

To answer your question Dr. Tracie, his beard has been of normal color. We have never seen it turn black. AHBD, he went into brumation November 1st and woke up on February 2nd. We ended up taking him to the reptile vet today. We found one that was a little bit closer-thanks to this wonderful...

He’s definitely a male.

Oh OK, got it that makes sense. Do you think we should lower the wattage? It seems like when we tried before he doesn’t get warm enough though. Even though we have removed the hammock today-he now has a graduated large resin root (California Customs) under the 150W, he is in the middle of the...

Thank you for your responses. I will attempt to check the gender tonight. Is there something that females would do that are similar to what’s happening to my bearded dragon? Compared to males? That would help me understand why the gender was important to this case. As for the accuracy of the...

From what I have read any bearded dragon with femoral pores is a male...if that info is correct...he has them. We are going to move some things around and take the hammock down for now as it really doesn’t have a gradient as Karrie mentioned. Set up is a bit different now than in the pictures...

Thank you! This helped us find someone closer to her home. We’ve been driving two hours away.

Will do!

Thank you so much Karrie.?

The hammock is where the basking spot is and we can’t get a temp on the seagrass. He used to love the hammock but maybe we need to switch it to something different that he can lay on instead.
