I've read literally every piece of information about bearded dragons that exists on the internet...so, since Amber was a baby, I was familiar with brumation, and was expecting the possibility this winter. So, I didn't freak out when she started getting lethargic and sleeping all day and quit eating.
What I wasn't prepared for was how sad I would be! I see her just laying around, barely opening an eye now and then to make sure I'm still around, and she looks so dang pitiful! I just want to snuggle with her all evening long, but also don't want to interrupt her nappy time. She was a little perkier the other day, so I gave her a bath and offered a few supers. In the bath, she just sat...didn't swim, didn't poop, didn't try to get out after her 20 minute limit she usually has. When I offered her worms, she just kind of rolled her eyes at me as if to say, "Can you just let me get back to napping now, please?" (And wouldn't you know, she started all this while we had close to 1000 worms on hand.. :roll: )
She's just pitiful..and I love her and miss her...
