Beardie’s head has been grey for over a week

[greengardenhose]

Hi there!

We recently purchased a juvenile beardie (name is glenn!) and for the last week or so his head has been completely grey and he appears to not eat as much anymore. He used to be able to eat 30-40 crickets every feeding at night but now is eating about 20 or so. I’ve attached pictures below. He seems to be shedding his tail at the moment which is going well however any opinions on why his head is so grey? Will it shed soon or is this a sign of illness? Thanks for reading!

Lol thanks. Apologies as well as you guys must get a ton of posts similar to this. It just seemed strange because his apetite appeared to be waning. Thanks again!

the appetite may go down slightly during a shed.
Usually a couple days it kicks back in.
