[QUOTE="Sweetykinz, post: 1990302, member: 113894"] Hi! I am sorta a newish bearded dragon owner (I got my girl in December 2021). I upgraded my bearded tank to a 75 gallon (48LX18wx24H) and ever since she’s been acting kind of lethargic, hiding, and not eating as much. Took her to the vet when I noticed her pooping became less and less and she was hiding a whole ton. The vet did a stool sample and found out she had pinworms and another parasite and was given Panacur which I give her .2 ml once every 2 weeks for 3 treatments in total Today should be the last day of her meds but I’m just concerned since she isn’t eating much of anything. I’ve checked her temps with a infered gun (hot side uses a 160w basking bulb and her basking spot is 98-100 give or take and her cool side remains around 80). The bulbs she uses is a long tube for her UVB (Reptisun 10.0 UVB T5 HO) and sits on top of her tank like her basking bulb. She has always loved her dubias however since the start of the medication, she really hasn’t been eating much of anything (she does eat hornworms still… I know they aren’t nutritionally balanced but currently I’ll give her anything that she will actively eat). But I’m wondering if the medication causes this or is there anything else I can do in order to get her to eat? She still will have normal looking stools and urates and there are no undigested bugs. They also are normal coloration as well. [/QUOTE]
