PLEASE HELP!!

[PrincesssCheryl]

Hello thank you so much for talking the time to help me out!!

I got my beardie about 5 months ago, at the time I got him he was 2 years old. I got him off someone that no longer wanted him. But anyways, he was eating okay, but they had been hand feeding him and I've been trying to get him to eat on his own. But now he isn't eating at all even if I hold the food in front of his face like they did. I've tried crickets, meal worms, veggies and green horn worms. After about a week of this I was getting really worried so I started feeding him baby food with a syringe because that's the advice I got off google. I really have no idea what is wrong. The cage is at the right temp. I've given him bathes, like I have tried everything!! Please help!! I'm really worried about my baby.

Hi. Can you go over the set up? Also he might be slowing down it that time of year. There is an article to the right on brumation. Hopefully that'll help determine what it might be.

I agree with destiny. Is he hanging out on the cool side of the tank more? Or in his hide more? Beardies generally slow down during the winter months, some go into a deep sleep that can last weeks straight. Like she said, read up on the Brumation article and see if that helps you out any.
