Does my beardie appear overweight?

[Sean36]

So this is Darwin. He is a 8 month old male beardie. Last time I checked, he is about 19" long. I feed him 1-2 times daily crix or veggies (carrots, kale, collards). I dust his crix with calcium, and give him multivits on the weekends. He is active, always curious, and loves his basking log. I am worried about his weight, being that his stomach sometimes drags when he runs (usually after eating). Should I be worried? Also, he has a tendency to only poop once or twice a week (last poop was maybe a little more than a week ago). He does have a basking lamp and new UVB bulb as of one month ago. I bathe him once every 2 days or so.

Hello He seems fine to me. My female daisy goes between looking fat and average after she has eaten.

Only poops once maybe twice a week? Are you sure your basking temps are good? Eating that much, he should poop more regularly than that it seems.....maybe he just digest slower, hence why he always looks so blown up...

He doesn't look fat at all though. Looks healthy to me.

Some adult beardies only poo a couple times a week. So thats ok. As long as the poo looks fine and its too watery, stinky, or dry you should be fine. Both my adults only poo about 2 times a week.
