Hello all!
I am a new bearded dragon owner, I got Dravyn in October of 17 and she's been doing great. We recently moved to a new house and I've changed up her lights and food. I also got her a bigger tank as she was in a 20 breeder and this one is a 40 breeder. So lots of new things for her.
I've read a lot of the forums on here and have the best of what I believe is the best. I have a 10.0 Raptisun UVB bar as well as a 100 watt ceramic heating light and a 150 W basking bulb As well as an extra red light for heat during the day only. I have been dusting her crickets with calcium plus by Repashy , but do to the small nature of the room we're living in I can't buy large crickets (because they are too loud) so I have been giving her double medium crickets to make up for it.
Here's my question she's been in distress as the color of her under chin has turned darker, she will still eat her crickets but she won't chase after them, she moves around in her tank just not as quick as she used to. I've been giving her baths almost daily and she's been able to poop when doing that, but she still looks like she is in distress (due to her underchin being so dark).
I read on here to give some squash with oil and she will take it from my hand but she won't eat it from the dish. She also doesn't touch her collard greens or small amount of carrots that I give her maybe once a month.
Any ideas? I feel like I've been doing what I have read on here but she is still dark underneath.
Please help!
