He's laid down in this pic...

He hasn't hardly eaten anything for about a week (4 crickets n 3 calci worms). I've been bathing him almost every day. Only 1 small poop about 4 days ago.

When can I expect an appetite back? He's still energetic.

That sounds like a mild impaction. They tend to lose their appetite when that happens. I would try longer baths and slowly raise the bath water temperature. You don't want to scald your dragon, but the hotter the water, the more likely he is to poop. You can also try oral fluids, and maybe a little bit of canned pumkin, squash or olive oil to try to get things moving. With my dragon, he had a long brumation and didn't eat much for almost a year, getting things moving again on their own took a while, so I have tried basically everything in the book. I also noticed that adding repti-safe water conditioner to the bath water made him much more likely to poop in the bath. I have no idea why, but it did, so that might be worth a try as well.

Good luck!

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. 😔
