2yo not eating

[Nmc8912]

Hi all, Drogon is about 2 years old. For the past month or so she has been eating only a bite or 2 of greens if anything but not much and is not interested in the Dubai roaches. She has been pretty lethargic as well and has lost some weight. She has an appointment at the vet tomorrow but just curious what it could be. She still has been pooping, last one was a couple days ago, so not sure what the problem is. She looks dehydrated but she is still passing urate and water so I would think she wouldn’t poop if she was dehydrated. I tried moving her UVB light closer to where she sits Incase it was a calcium issue but it hasn’t changed much. Thanks

What kind of UVB do you have ? coil or tube and what brand and bulb?

I use a reptisun 10 T8 tube. Just replaced it in April.

Ok so UVB is good -- and its closer now -- 6-8 inches? And her basking temps what are they running? How do you take temps? Have you given her a bath ? Is she drinking out of her bath? Has she been checked for parasites / worms? They would cause this issue

Took her to the vet today and turns out she has cancer neuroendocrine carcinoma. Apparently common in young dragons. Have to put her to sleep.
