Do bearded dragons brumate every year? or sick

[SkittlesK]

Hey guys,
After bearded dragons' first year, do they brumate each year around the same time.?

My bearded dragon has been a little sick or going into his brumation.
I have been keeping the tank clean

Thanks.

Normally I would say so--

Mine do every year.

Ok, thanks.
I'll make sure to monitor his weight.

It was just a couple of 'loose stools' but I was feeding silkworms.

EDIT:
He ate some today but it looks like he's slowing down
I gave him some colloidal silver.

Hello,

On average, they do tend to either fully brumate, or to some extent,
they will slow down for a seasonal brumation. If you are unsure, be
sure his weight is stable & his fat pads look good. You could get a fecal
done to ensure his worm & parasite levels are in check also.
