Hello all.
I have a bearded dragon, less than a year old.
Her and I bond EVERYDAY and even sleep together... Well, I went out of town and left her in the care of my mother.. My mom informed me yesterday that Mushu hid in her cave the entire day, and refused to come out. She also only ate 2 crickets and none of her greens. My mom told me today that she refuses to eat and come out of her cave again.. My mom plays with her regularly so she took her out and let her walk around the living room.. However, she hasn't moved from the same spot in over an hour, but shes still alert... I feel as if shes depressed or misses me... Please help. I'm really concerned.

Hello,

Oh poor girl. That is a possibility that she does miss you! A lot of times they will exhibit behavior such as depression or lethargic behavior. A change can really affect them sometimes especially if they are used to a certain routine.
How long will you be gone?

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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!
