Eating, Lots of Sleeping, NO POOPING!

[AuWiMo]

My beardie (Genghis) was being treated for roundworms, but she started semi brumating stopped pooping before we got a fecal done on her. She ate a little bit after she stopped pooping in around the end of October. Baths, olive oil, and prune juice have not helped. Maybe she just used it all and doesn't need to poop? What should I do?

If she is sleeping a lot but her weight is stable I wouldn't push the baths and laxatives much. Just offer her some drops of water to lick up if she wants them. Their systems do slow down so she is likely to not eat as much as usual and poop frequency becomes much less as well. This should all return to normal after she is done with brumation cycle.

She went from 453 grams to 468 grams after the treatment, then gained six more grams to 474, then proceeded to drop to 466 grams. She has not pooped for maybe 2 months, but we thought it was because of her brumating. We are taking her to the vet today, but any advice?

That's normal fluctuations. Keep charting it out over time. You can even keep an excel or google sheets page and create a graph that will show a trendline for you. 2 months is a long time without a poop but if she isn't eating much she may not need to. A vet can feel for any blockages aside from any advanced diagnostics but my guess is she's OK based on your description.
