Are her lights in the tank up to par? Surface basking temps ? UVB? If all this is on par she will eventually poop -- can you post a pic of the black beard your speaking of and her -- are you giving a little extra calcium since she laid the eggs?Hello, my bearded dragon has been having a dark beard since this morning. It was a little dark last night. But not really. I don’t think I did anything to make her mad. She dosent really want her greens. She laid eggs a few days ago. Yesterday she ate a lot of greens. Like a crazy amount. She also still wanted her crickets today. She was really excited for them. She has been having extra crickets since she laid the eggs. She sometimes gets up and walks back and forth a bit as well. I don’t know how many times she did this today. The dark beard gets a bit better with food. Could this be from poop? Or is it something worse? I feel like sometimes she dosent want her greens when she needs to poop and hasn’t gone in a few days. And, maybe a few times she has a black beard.
I believe all the lights are good. I changed them less than 6 months ago. The temps seem the same as yesterday. Which was around 100 basking temp. I can’t check it right now because she’s sitting on it. I have been giving her calcium every day. With d3 only twice a week. This is her beard about as dark as I’ve seen it today. Other times it’s a bit brighter.Are her lights in the tank up to par? Surface basking temps ? UVB?

I think she did this because of the vacuum. It made her beard worse too. The vacuum wasn’t on before though.View attachment 86263
She did this a second later
Shes fine-- their beards will change color w/ their moods -- the vacuum may have scared herI think she did this because of the vacuum. It made her beard worse too. The vacuum wasn’t on before though.
Ok, thank you very much! I think the vacuum wasn’t on until I took the second picture. Although it definitely upset her when it was on. I know sometimes they are not in the mood for greens. But, is it ok she’s dosent want greens if she was eating them a lot yesterday. And had eggs on Sunday. Could her large appetite just have gone away?Shes fine-- their beards will change color w/ their moods -- the vacuum may have scared her
It's fine if shes not hungry- just keep offering her food she'll eat when she's hungryOk, thank you very much! I think the vacuum wasn’t on until I took the second picture.

Ok, thank you very much! Luckily it’s just the greens. She still wants her crickets.It's fine if shes not hungry- just keep offering her food she'll eat when she's hungry
Ok, thank you! I will give her greens first. She ate one this morning. But, after that she hasn’t wanted anything to do with them. Sometimes she gets real picky with greens. For a while she hasn’t been though.I agree with Karrie.
Tomorrow offer greens before the crickets to keep her on a good trend, I know she's always done good eating greens from what I remember.
