I've noticed recently my beardie has been losing his appetite. Hes only a couple months old roughly and under 7 inches. I feed him twice a day due to work roughly 10-20 crickets. His cage temps are 105 at his hot end and 80 at the cool end. For some reason now I'll put food in his terrarium and hell ignore it and go back to basking. The only thing I can think of is that since he hasn't been eating all the crickets hes just been hunting down the loose ones throughout the day. Could that be the issue?
Hi there, can you post pics of your beardie in his tank and show what type + brand of lights you have ? If the uvb is not the good brand/type it can greatly affect their health . Here's how to post pics : https://www.beardeddragon.org/useruploads / Then use the XIMG to upload them
this is his current cage setup zoo med t5 ho bulb I know it's not inthe best location but until I build his new cage it had to sit on top of the screen because I don't want to modify his current cage
The t5 is fine on the screen. It may be a parasite problem or possibly dehydration [ among other things ] Can you try dripping some water steadily on his snout [ be patient ] to see if he;ll drink ? Give it a minute or two if he doesn't drink right away.
