My beardie is going on his second day without going to the bathroom. I usually have to clean his cage two times a day he is about 3 months old always been very healthy. I did give him small pieces of apple could that have done it. Also I did get a new uvb light which is the dreded reptiglo 10.0 which is going right back to the pet store today. What can I do to insure his health. thanks dave
It seems both me and you are having the same problem about no one answering our posts...Anyways...could you just answer these questions just to give me the low down on everything and I can help you out. And with the whole not pooping thing, try to give him a warm bath, usually that clears them out right away.
