Brumation or sick?

[Ede618]

I have a female bearded dragon roughly 1 year old. Her enclosure is 4' x 2'. Hot spot is 100-105 degrees on the ground. Substrate is millet. I feed her crickets and collared greens daily. I am using uv 10.0 that was just replaced in September.

She seemed to be eating slightly less crickets than normal recently (2-3 dozen instead of 3-4 dozen). She has been very lethargic the past couple days and was actually napping during the day today which is odd for her.

Normally she is very agressive but yesterday I was able to pick her up without her trying to bite me. Today she ate about 6 crickets and that was all. She may have eaten some greens but I really can't tell. She has also been pooping less with smaller size as well. The smell actually seems more bearable than normal too. A few weeks ago I noticed her poop was slightly runny in one spot but the rest was fine and from what I could tell it was only like that once.

Any insight is greatly appreciated! If you have any other questions about her situation please ask

is she exhibiting stress marks or just acting lazy? Dragons are freaking lazy I tell you what. Franklin sometimes sleeps for days even in the summer

Stress marks? What's really bothering me is the fact that she won't eat. She was always an excellent eater

Stress marks- like is she not eating and also being all stripey? Usually it's not abnormal for them to slow down eating in the winter though.

I'm sorry I'm still not understanding the stripey lol

Little black lines on his tummy and a darker colour. Without stress marks:
