For a whole week now, Nova hasn't wanted to eat. He stopped eating his greens and then stopped eating worms.
He has eaten only three super worms since saterday. I find it odd as it actually got warmer here recintly, but at the same time he got less active. Also his fat pads on his head have not shrunken at all since he stoped eating like he did before.
So could something be wrong, or he just have semi brumation?

He could be wanting to brumate, it could be environmental, he could just be bored. Beardies can become really weird about food. One of my females was an agressive eater, but back around October she had to be on antibiotics, it's been a struggle to get her to eat every since. Just keep an eye on his weight, as long as he isn't loosing a significant amount don't get overly worked up. Maybe try changing up his feeders, they do get burned out on them.

Ok, thanks. I'll see about trying something new with him.

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. 😔
