My baby bearded dragon is shedding,he started about 3 days ago. He eats 1 dubia or 2 worms a day but doesn't poop! He hasn't pooped in 2 days now,i am getting really scared that he is impacted,i am giving him baths every day. I don't know what to do!

Shedding can have an effect on their appetite and behavior. Since it looks like he has a full body shed going, my first guess is that's what's at play and he should return to normal after that's done.

When you offer bugs, do you offer as much as he wants in a sitting and he just takes 1 or 2? Or are you limiting him to those amounts? At his age, he will intermittently eat a lot, so I would offer small amounts of bugs but repeat until he loses interest. The actual amount he wants will vary.

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
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
