Hi. My bearded dragon was really jumpy today and was all of a sudden scared of me, trying to handle him was a hassle. Tried to get him to eat his roaches but he only was able to eat one. I have his veggies and roaches accessible to him through a bowl, but he doesn't bother to eat them. Yesterday he didn't eat much as well and is starting to worry me.
Currently he is shedding which may be what's causing this, but I just want to make sure that he doesn't have something serious like parasites or another illness.
Setup:
50 Gallon Tank
Heat lamp: bright white 70 watt flood light (heats up surface 100-110 degrees Fahrenheit)
UVB: Reptisun 10.0 T5 florescent tube
Both lights 10 inches away from basking spot
Cool side 80-85 degrees and hot side 85-90
Substrate: non-adhesive shelf liner
Wooden box with blanket for hide, ramp and log for climbing, a bowl for roaches, and 3 bricks for basking.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
