I have a five/six year old bearded dragon that has not pooped in around two-three weeks. He's never been much of a "pooper", usually he goes once a week, but he hasn't "gone" in close to a month now and I'm beginning to worry.
He's still a spunky and perky old lizard, he's wide-eyed and perky and loves to run around my room and explore. Some days he acts lethargic and doesn't want to eat, but he does eat atleast every other day and he continues to waddle around.
He's never been a "pooper", he usually goes once a week, which is why I'm beginning to really worry. His tummy doesn't look super swollen, and his back legs seem fine based on how he runs around. I've tried everything I could find to "help him out" (feeding him a mixture of applesauce and olive oil, worms dipped in olive oil, loooots of warm baths and misting, belly rubs, and letting him chill on a heating pad to warm his tummy. I've even taken him outside onto the porch to soak in some real rays!) to no avail!
Am I just worrying too much?
