Hi all, I am Barb & Plato (the dragon), and I am a herp addict! LOL
Plato is now 9 mjonths old, orange male. He just woke up from his sleep, off and on.
And is looking for ladies! Black beard bobber I call him! Still not eating though.
Had a fecal test done months ago, OK, but still won't eat. UV new and fine, heat good,
baths 2Xweekly. But no appretite just looking for ladies I think!

Hello and welcome to the Forum :D

At 9 months old, he should be ready to breed, but I wouldn't want him to lose too much weight. Keep an eye out for poops. Sometimes it can be easier to keep track of those that actual feeders. As long as he's active he may be okay. Sometimes sick dragons will get a black beard, and bright colors when they're really heading down hill.

Fecal exams don't always catch the problem the first time.

Thanks for the reply. He is eating some squash and a little arugula. Small poops regularly. He gets horny when he sees my cat!
Wierd fellow he is.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
