Brumation blues

*sigh* I miss the old energetic Leo— but he’s falling deeper and deeper into brumation, he isn’t fully in it yet since he’s still pretty young but it feels so lonely without him hanging out on my lap or clinging to my shirt 🥲

2 months have never gone so slow. He is sleeping 90% of the time now and hardly moves from his perch (except to eat from time to time), he is perfectly health though and hasn’t been losing any weight.

This brumation will be his first, and it seems to be going smoothly. I wish winter was over already! 😭😱🥶🥺

Hes pretty young to be brumating already -- did you get a weight on him?
I know— he’s not in full brumation, as I mentioned. Very sleepy though, eats the same as always and moves around a couple times a day. He spends most of if not all his time these days under the basking spot.

I got a weight on him, he is 467 grams at the moment (not overweight). He has grown a few grams but never lost any, I’m not concerned.

Gus - he’s a rescue!
How much water should I be giving my bearded dragon? He will only drink from a dropper when I drop on his nose and I’m not sure if I should give it to him until he won’t drink anymore? Or should I stop after he’s had a certain amount?
Just want to check that if my beardie is ok I managed to get a video of him yawning today and screenshot him with his mouth open does he have mouth rot??? He is eating and drinking normally btw, the discoloration on his left of the mouth has been there for a month but the discoloration on his right side is new
