So this is my first beardie (Witblit - not sure if that means anything) but I have experience with other reptiles (snakes and Geckos) so I have a decent feel for when something is wrong. I got my beardie about 2 months ago and he has easily doubled if not tripled in size but recently he has been showing some troubling signs. He’s currently in a 20gal long (just until his 4x2x2 pvc comes) and has a mini halogen basking light and 2 exo terra desert uvb bulb (I can get exact wattage and temps when I’m back home) he gets fed 4x/week with mealworms dusted in Repashy Calcium Plus and 3x/week with spring mix (without spinach) and some type of fruit or vegetable (zuchinni, strawberry, etc) he has many places to go there’s a decent temperature gradient and many different options for basking but I believe he sits too close to his heat lamp he’s maybe 4” from the bulb and he lays there CONSTANTLY he’s there all day and night sleeps there etc but the main problem is that if he walks/runs when he stops he has a bit of a wobble aswell as just any type of movement he gets a bit of a wobble in his head/front he wasn’t doing this when I first got him and I’ve really only started noticing this recently he has also started to change colours when he’s on his basking spot to a really dark colour he also opens his mouth and waves a lot, but my main worry is the wobble, any help will be greatly appreciated thanks!
