My bearded dragon, George, has not taken well to he's vivarium at all in my opinion.

He is now extremely sleepy at all times, no matter what time it is, at night he sleeps all night, but I have noticed he's temperatures at night time drop to 15 Celcius!, so I have ordered a CHE!.

Anyway, he's vivarium setup is great I know it is perfect for any bearded dragon. I am so stressed and I don't have a clue. I am taking him to the vet, but I wan't some advice!

Well, 15C is way to low even for night temps, but you already know that and are addressing it.

Otherwise, how old is he? If he's more than a year or so, he may be going into a brumation cycle.

It could also be lack of proper UV light (if your UV bulb is getting old -- 8+ months), improper daytime

temps, or even parasites, so a vet check isn't a bad idea if you don't think it's brumation and you rule

out all the other potentials.

Brand new Arcadia strip light, and a uncoated 100w bulb (soon to be 60) because the basking spot gets to hot.

I'll take him to the vets because I can't think of anything else it could be

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
