Sorry guys, I've been reading crazy stuff online and got paranoid.
To be fair, on the first two he was only standing on his front legs because I just picked him up from laying down to get a better picture. I can take pictures of him when he is at his natural full stand if you think it will be beneficial.
Why does his gut look like this? It is very strange to me. It looks and feels exactly like a beer gut. It's soft, smooshy and huge. My other two beardies have big guts, but they are firmer and don't sag like his does (well then again they are different from him-one is female and the other a baby). Is this normal?
To be honest I am not completely convinced he is a he. At the place I bought him they said it was a boy, and he acts like a boy, but when I looked he has the female bump (one bump, not two). When I put my older girl and him on the floor of my house to run around, I went to the bathroom and when I came back she was on top of him trying to mate (which means I am no longer letting them be together in any way, shape or form) yet she was on top of him? It was a very strange sight.
More info:
He is active, eats A LOT and poops 1-2x daily. I have noticed his poop being a little watery.
Also, I give him daily calcium with his roaches. I have him on sand substrate but I am switching that over to carpet (he is in my just built cage in those pictures and does not actually live in there yet because it isn't completely finished).
Sorry guys, I am just really worried.
