I recently bought my bearded dragon Bowser on November 30th and it is now December 3rd and he hasn’t pooped once, I remember on the first day I fed him like 6 or 7 super worms and afterwards he was being really picky with his food, he would occasionally take a bite at his kale and would not acknowledge the worms. Yesterday, December 2nd, however I gave him 9 crickets which he happily ate. Now he’s not eating and still hasn’t pooped and I’m becoming really concerned about his heath and the fear of him having an impaction. I decided to give him a warm bath as other people said, hoping that would solve the issue, but it didn’t. Could it be that he’s stressed from the transition, but I don’t see any signs of stress on him. Please help!
 
Give him some time. He just had a big move and it will take a little time to settle in even if he’s not showing outward signs or stress he is still going through a little relocation stress. Just keep offering bugs and veggies. Mine used to only poop bath every couple days. I wouldn’t worry yet.

People used to say only to feed superworms to a beardie that is at least 16" long. I don't know if that is a rule anymore though.

Hi. How old is your beardie? How big? If it's a baby do not feed it superworms. They are to hard for babies to digest and too big.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
