My beardie, Soul Patch, has been acting wonky lately. I can understand if he's going through brumation, but I just want to make sure that's it.
He sleeps a lot more - if I don't pull him out of his hide, he'll stay there forever. If I wake him, he's lazy but himself.
When he is out, occasionally I'll see that he has a black beard for zero reason.
He has zero interest in greens or any veggies. He will, however, eagerly eat worms/roaches.
He has not had a bowel movement in nearly a month.
This is what concerns me though - his last bowel movement was bloody. I had him to the vet, and he says no parasites or unusual lumps. Unfortunately, since he hasn't gone again, there's nothing to test further. I gave him some butternut and olive oil by syringe on Sunday, but nothing yet.
Is this just brumation, or is there something else going on?
