Hello,
My daughter is very worried and upset over her bearded dragon. Lately he has been less active, eating less, not as active, sleeping more. He has a log dome thing he has been going under alot lately. Today when she went to look at him under the log his skin is yellow colored an beard is very dark black. She picked him up and he really won"t be roused. He is alive as she got him to move a bit when she gently turned him on his back. He has remained the same yellow color and beard is still black.
She said he did eat yesterday (a little bit) and did poop yesterday as well.
She is convinced he is very ill or dying. I am her mother and will admit I know next to nothing concerning bearded dragons. She has only had him for a few months and is still learning about them. Her father is the one who has more knowledge and has set up his tank with a the proper lights etc. Unfortunately her father is out of town at the moment and I cannot reach him, I am googling like crazy trying to find out what is going on with him and what if anything we should be doing but I have found so many different possible answers I am even more confused.
Any help/advice would be appreciated, Thank you!
