Acting strangely...well, to me.

As maybe some of you know, my beardie Grisha was suspected to have gone into brumation, since he spent most of his day yesterday sleeping and hiding. He also didn't eat his salad at all, but he did eat 3 superworms. Today though he's still really slow, but mostly awake.
He hasn't pooped in about 2 days, so I'm gonna give him a bath today and give him a tummy rub. Over the last few days though, he's been black bearding and puffing up for reasons I can't understand. Two days ago he woke up and puffed up with a black beard, and today while basking he puffed up and black bearded after I put him on his basking spot, so I put him back in his cool side, but then he just went right back to his spot! Now after giving him 3 more superworms that he grabbed in a frenzy(still won't eat salad), he's back on his perch and is slowly getting a black beard. Though as I type he just went back to his basking spot.

His basking spot is 103 F today, like usual, and I haven't even bothered him all that much. Is it really brumation, or could it be something else? I'm getting way too worried. :?

Anyone? He's still refusing to eat, and he still hasn't pooped yet. I just gave him a bath and rubs but he's still not going. Just sitting on his basking spot(which he climbs to himself) and gets a black beard.

A vet visit is normally recommended before brumation to check for parasites. You could also go for a routine visit just to make sure nothing is wrong.
