Hey everyone, first time beardie owner here. My young lady, Scute, is in shed. she successfully shed the scales around her chin and mouth and is now moving on to her tail. Her appetite due to this has shrunk (though today luckily she ate more than she did yesterday and the day before), and has gone from eating upwards of 8 to 12 modest sized crickets a day to only between 2 and 3, i have been getting her to eat some small superworms though if im lucky. Her insect feeders is primarily crickets, however I like to shake things up for her with Superworms as mentioned, mealworms on occasion and butterworms. She loves greens, uncharacteristic for a young beardie, and I bathe her once a day during her shed, however my concern is if my luck runs out (she ate a superworm and 3 crickets today), is it possible she could end up with malnutrition or a calcium deficiency from not eating as much during shed? She is 2 months old, 7 inches long. She is still perky and active (for being in shed) and disease has been ruled out. All your answers are appreciated

She looks good in that photo. It's common for their appetites to decrease like that during shed and isn't likely to cause any harm. Her appetite will probably pick back up again after the shed, not a problem. Given her size, I'd also try to include some black soldier fly larvae in her diet. They are small and fairly nutritious.

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!
