So my baby's done with his partial shedding, or so I believe. But he's not eating his crickets(at least any time I check), his poops seem more runny and he's been trying to sleep more. He's too young for brumation, right? Is he okay? I set veggies out and water and been misting him but he won't budge much. Any ideas on what could be wrong?
 
You are right, I think he looks a little young for brumation. You say he's lethargic, won't eat or drink, and has runny stools? Have you fed him anything out of the ordinary lately? I fed my beardie a grasshopper as a treat for the first time and she had these symptoms. I took her to the vet and they said that grasshoppers hurt her stomach (some dragons are okay with them). I had to give her medicine for the rest of the week. Could it be that?

Bearded dragons can also get parasites. It may not be your fault, but it is very serious. I highly recommend that you take your bearded dragon to the vet very soon. Hope this helped! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

I set out a small amount of raspberries a day or two ago but he didn't seem to touch them. I had a feeling that it could've been colder in my room so I turned the heat up. Left him alone for a bit and he seems a little more alert. Not eating yet but still. Hopefully it was just the temp messing with him and everything will be better. But I'll be sure to check if he does have parasites. Thank you I was worried

I'm glad I could help. I personally recommend bringing your beardie to the vet annually, that's what I do with my dragons :)

Sometimes simple twee king his lighting or temps will bring them out of something like this!
Can you go over the specifics of his viv with us?
Things like:
Lights...uvb and uva
Duration of lighting...example mine are on from 6am to 9pm
Size of viv
Temps... Basking, warm end, cool end
Substrate
Diet
All of these can be problematic and, tweaking them can help tremendously. We will be glad to guide you through it.

That is very true. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. This might be why her beardie is sick

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!
