Not sure what could be wrong. Our dragon, Oscar, hasn't come out of his rock unless we take him out. He hasn't eaten really in weeks and has only pooped once in weeks ... when I put him in the bath for a little one day well before Christmas.
We got him from PetSmart at the end of June 2012. So if he was 2 months then, he would be 8 months now. Is it possible that he is bruminating? Or should I be worried?
We have:
100 Gallon tank
Slate bottom/substrate
Reptisun 10.0 bulb (36" I think)
Ceramic heat emitter in middle (80 degrees)
Basking spot is low 100's
Cool side is like 75
Hiding spot on cool side and under basking spot. He goes in both.
Sometimes, I reach in and take him out from under the rock. And he is very white on the bottom (no stress marks). He looks tired, always, when I take him out though.
He gave up eating crickets close to the beginning of December and since then, we've only gotten a few greens in him. Food scale was broken, just got a new battery...so now we can weigh and see if he's losing weight or not.
Could be be sick? Or just bruminating?
