Hello everyone. I'm start thinking if the change in the appetite of my beardie girl normal. I'm dealing with little abnormal poop that she has. Other than that she's growing and gaining weight and looks healthy. BUT when she was 4-5 month old she was going crazy when I came to enclosure to feed her. Used to jumping on the front glass and all that. Now she's 7-8 month old. And last couple months she wasn't so excited. And start eating less. She still eating good consider the norms but definitely less than she used to and with much less effort. Is that something that change during the time when they become older or that's something abnormal and I should connect that to her stool problem and figure that out. I used to feed her 3 times a day, but now doing it twice and she's still not going crazy like she used to.

Have you started offering salad/Veggies.?
At that age, they start to change to veggies and salads instead of bugs.

She was eating salads and veggies from the beginning with no problem. I'm still giving her every day!

She's kind of slowing down on the insects on her own so that would be fine unless she started to look thin. Can you post a pic to show her size ?

Aww your profile picture is precious ❤️‍🩹
Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
