Mountain Dragon Tasmania help

[NattyB]

I have a friend who has as baby Mountain dragon and lives in Tasmania. He's approx 4 months old and has been healthy so far.

The last week he has stopped eating and barely moves. I am thinking brumation??

Anyone got any ideas besides the norm??

Hi there....baby lizards of any type don't really brumate, just adults. Does your friend have access to care sheets ? There are some online. Most mountain horned dragons are wild caught so it may have parasites. They also need much cooler temps., and I've read that they do better with a water feature in their enclosure and high humidity. Ask him how he is set up + tell him to Google mountain horned dragon care. Hopefully the little guy will survive.

Thanks for your input.

I don't know much about these guys as I have a bearded dragon.

Poor baby Camo passed today apparently. RIP Camo

Hello,

I am sorry your friend's dragon, Cameo, passed away so suddenly.
It is highly possible that he was wild caught & they normally have a difficult time overcoming being captive.
