having trouble feeding boss

[BOSSdabeardie]

boss has stopped eating all together what should i do temps and uv r fine

What's in his salad? Do you feed him mealworms? How old is Boss? If you think he's constipated(impacted) give him warm baths and massage his belly under his armpits down to his back legs. If he still doesn't eat try putting a drop of baby food on his nose and see if he licks it off.

He is probably impacted. Giving them warm baths and letting them just sit in it for about a good hour is good for them. Make sure you monitor him at all time. If he doesn't poop, I'd say send him to the vet immediately. But you also have to make sure your beardie has enough Calcium(Vitamin D3) in him. Dust it on your crickets, kale, etc..

he pooped today and he still wont eat i got a vet visit for wednesday. The vet said if i cant get a fresh stool sample they will get one..... what does that mean

That means the Vet will stick a small swab up the backend of your beardie to get a stool sample. This will also usually cause them to poop some which may be a good thing in your case. Good luck.
