I got my beardie yesterday in the early morning, he's about 3 months old, but he hasn't pooped at all yet. he urated yesterday, and it was really watery, but he actually drinks a lot of water from his dish. i gave him a warm bath this morning, but he doesn't really like baths and it didn't seem to help. he's active and eating good, and very alert, am i just being paranoid?


update: he's totally healthy and fine, i was just being paranoid.

It's good that he's active and has an appetite. It's not uncommon for them to go for a few days without pooping. The watery urate is likely just from being well hydrated. Unless that continues (for weeks) I wouldn't worry too much about it. If he doesn't poop in the next few days and his appetite keeps up then you can try putting a few drops of olive oil on his nose to help things along.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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!
