Brumation

[reppintilians]

I have a 2 year old male bearded dragon who may have just started brumating. My only concern is the fat pads and skin look a little malnourished. Also he has been refusing worms/crickets but does eat a little bit of greens (not in front of me, but the bowl is left inside). My question is should I be worried, more sleeping, less eating and looking like he lost some weight? Thanks. Yes Everything In His Setup Is Correct.

The less eating and more sleeping is in line with brumation. His fat pads should be in pretty good shape though. During brumation their weight should remain fairly stable (my dragon lost 4% body weight over 3 months last year). I suggest keeping a log of his weight so you can monitor that and if his weight is trending downward you may want to have a vet checkup.
