Hello!! This is my first post here, I apologize if I’ve done anything wrong.
My adult male bearded dragon, Link, has been acting a lil odd? I want to make sure he’s healthy. The femoral pores on the back of his legs are clogged, I'm aware of how to fix this and have been giving him extra soaks and working on fixing this issue, so it’s not really what concerns me. I was wondering if the clogged pores are the reason he’s a little fidgety? He’s just recently started to ease out of brumation lately and he eats well and isn’t impacted. It’s quite minor but I have noticed his back legs trembling slightly when he walks sometimes.. is he just tired or is it because of the pores? Or is it something serious? Also, his back legs don’t shake when he’s sitting still. I’m not sure if it’s possible to attach videos but I will put pictures of him from today just to be safe. Sorry for putting pictures of your toes online, Link!

I see, thank you. I was using a long tube fixture but unfortunately couldn’t get a replacement when I needed to, so I’ve been using a coil bulb for now.

What is the long tube bulb you need to replace brand and bulb - please get rid of the coil --- the sooner the better - distance and placement will be determined by the screen on the tank

The entire fixture for the tube uvb bulb broke so I had to throw it out but I think the brand was Zilla? I’ll see if they have what I need online since it’s not at my local pet store (I checked earlier today ). Could the UVB light cause my beardies behavior ?

He looks really alert there for coming out of his brumation. As suggested, changing & upgrading your
UVB lighting will do wonders for him.
You may want to consider some liquid calcium for him also, to help boost his system right now. A long
brumation phase can sometimes tax the system & drain their calcium stores if they were low to begin
with going into brumation.
