we think tater might be sick.
she hasn't eaten much for about a week.
we thought she might be brumating, but this morning she don't want to move very much, has a dark beard, and her eyes seem sunken. she hasn't seemed to lost any weight.
she is in a 40 gal. tank. we use reptile carpet. reptiglo 10.0 uvb which on her basking spot she is within about 8".
the temps,(taken with probe) are about 105-80.
we feed her crickets and greens, she gets a bath 3 or 4 times a week,
we use a calcium liquid,given by syringe once a week(recomended by our vet) he was the vet at our city zoo(retired).
she is about a little over a year old. this is our first brumation. we have 3 other beardies they are doing fine.
thanks for any help
