I have had my beardie for 6 months or more and 3 days ago I went to hold him and he was skinnier and wrinkly on his sides. He eats really well, his name is Chub Chub for a reason haha. But I don't know what else could be wrong. I give him bath once or twice a week and I feed him crickets, meal worms and his veggies.

Hello,

You can try by giving some oral fluids too, via a plastic dropper or syringe if he appears more dehydrated or wrinkly. Could he be going to shed soon? Sometimes their skin gets more wrinkled in appearance prior to a shed, too. You can increase his baths too if you would like.
Does he eat greens/veggies pretty well on a regular basis also?

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!
