Is my beardie overweight?

Hello,
My bearded dragon is about 5 or 6 months old amd I've noticed his belly is rather large. Is this normal? Is he overweight?
I feed him about 15 small dubia roaches twice a day with a salad of collard, mustard, and turnip greens with squash.

I don't know why the picture went sideways :)

That's a pretty good diet. Have you been tracking his weight? I'd do that so you can monitor trends. His arms and legs don't look too big, they're a good size. His belly is big but it may just be that he's puffing it out while basking or perhaps he is having issues digesting. Is he pooping regularly? Does it look normal (compared to past poops)? Does it look puffed out all the time?

He poops regularly. Everyday for the most part, sometimes every other day. They look normal to me.
I can start tracking his weight. About one month ago he was 121 grams.
It doesn't look that way all of the time, mostly when he's basking or had just eaten.

That's a good sign then. As long as he isn't puffed out all the time and isn't dragging his belly on the floor as he walks then it's probably just him puffing out to increase surface area while he's basking.

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. 😔
