Beardie not eating anymore

[jle323]

Snuggles is 1 year old and we've had him/her since November. (I say him/her because our local reptile owner says he's a boy and our vet thinks, but is not sure, that he is a girl. He's always been a good eater until the past month or so. He used to get excited when we fed him dubias and I could definitely tell he ate his salad. Now I rarely see him eat any dubias and if he is eating salad it's a small amount. He did have pinworms a month ago and we treated him, but he hasn't pooped in the past week for me to bring in another sample. He doesn't seem lethargic and I've been bathing him daily to encourage poop. For his salad I've been rotating strawberries, blueberries, apples, collard greens, mustard greens, dandelion greens, escarole, bell pepper. He seems to have no interest. What can I do to entice him to eat again? Is there anything particularly delicious I can give him? I'm really worried, and I'm not very impressed with our vet and don't feel I can ask her (she had no idea what a dubia roach was). I appreciate any advice I can get.

Try not to worry quite yet. Usually beardies will not starve themselves. Did this all start with the worm treatment? Have you tried giving him a probiotic? Before this began what was his normal poop schedule (every day, every other day?).what are his current temps? If he is refusing food and is not pooping this can be a sign of impaction. Keep him well hydrated by misting throughout the day and at this point I'd do daily baths until he/she poos. Good herp vets are hard to find, I've noticed that myself.
