Hello
thank you for reading

I got a bearded dragon 1 month ago I believe he is about 7 months old.
-He sleeps almost all day.
-Eats two dubias a day.
-He has pooed three times in 1 month.
-He is alert when out of the tank and is a good weight.
-isn't aggressive and doesn't seem scared of me.

He is in a four foot wooden viv. I have just fitted an acadia 12% uvb bulb (previously a repti glo 8.0). No lose substrate. Temps are 105 basking area and 80 at the coolest point (measured with a temp probe that has been tested against a temp gun). He will eat two crickets a day or two dubia but only if they are hand fed to him. I offer dubias several times a day and occasionally offer crickets and locus and I offer veg everyday but he doesn't eat any. He will eat wax worms but I don't want him to become addicted. If I pick him up and put him on his basking stop he will stay there for a while but eventually climb down and go back to sleep. I have been bathing him twice a week and he seem to like that and perks up when I put him back in his tank on his basking spot. On a good day he might be awake for four hours on a bad day he'll sleep all day.

Could he be partially brumating for some reason even though it's spring here (uk) ? If he is should I just stop trying to get him to fed and leave him to it?

Any other ideas?

Hi there....where did you get him, and how are you estimating his age ? Can you post a few pics of him ? Do you know his actual length + weight ? He could be in a partial brumation or there may be other things contributing but he might start doing better with the Arcadia bulb. Does he drink when you bathe him ? Two baths a week is O.K for an adult, but he might need a little more hydration if he's still young.

I got him online and the previous owner told me his age but didn't give me an exact date. He said he got him from a reptile shop.
He doesn't drink when I bath him. I Also mist him and drop water on his nose but he usually doesn't drink that either. How often should I bathe? I'm happy to do more but don't want to give him a RI.
I will weigh and measure him today.
I can't seem to do photos from my iPhone. I will try and get on a desktop.
* he is 14 inches and 156g

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
