My Bearded dragon all the sudden is hiding majority of the day and I don't know why! Also he is only going to the bathroom once a week and i found that kind of weird. This is my first beaded dragon and I've had him almost a year now.

Has your dragon ever been to the vet? Parasites maybe. Could be brumation. You need a vet visit and fecal. Also makeep sure your lighting is correct and basking temps.

 

[TyLiz1024]

no he has not seen a vet. his temp is 105-110

I suggest monitoring his weight. If he's in brumation his weight should remain relatively stable. If that's the case then he will be OK.

 

[TyLiz1024]

he eats regularly daily. weight hasn't change just through me off that he started hiding daily and isn't going to the bathroom daily

You need to have a yearly checkup and fecal done at least once a year. Twice a year fecal exam wouldn't hurt. You don't want a dragon to brumate with a heavy parasite load.
