Not Basking as much

[russll41]

My 2 older beardies Daisy and Dexter dont bask as much as i think they should. Daisy is 9 months old very healthy weight wise and looks. Dexter is 11 months very happy and healthy looks also. They dont eat as much as they used to. Sometimes every other day. They always laying in there basking rock. Daisy eats then lays in her bed. I never see them just laying out basking like they use to. As far as pooping they only poop when i soak them. It looks normal. Is this ok behavior?

I would suggest checking the temperatures at their basking spots. At their age it should be between 100-103.
Maybe it is too hot? Many beardies prefer to poop in the bath. I have one like that, so I bathe him daily.

Are your beardies housed together?

My temps are in the 100-104 range. Dexter stays under his rock for days sometimes. WHen he comes out he is the brightest orange and happy.. Daisy eats and lays in her hammock after. I thought about moving her hammock into the basking spot. No they are housed separate.
