Hello guys, it's been awhile since I've last posted. Milo has recently seemed to be sick. He puffs up and black beards quite frequently. He sometimes makes an odd weezing noise and spits up (just waterish looking spit no food.) when I hold him. He gets feed dubia roaches and collard greens daily. His setup is as follows:
-102 warm side
-80 cool
-65ish at night
-a Reptisun 10.0 tube

He's on tile and repticarpet, no sand or loose substrate ever. Not really sure what's wrong, :/ he hasn't been eating as much either. He still eats but considerably less. Thanks to all replies, hoping to get him to a vet soon, but I wanted to see if anyone knew what was wrong beforehand. Thanks.

This is a re-post from health, sorry for the double post :/

Definitely sounds like an upper respiratory infection due to the wheezing and the waterish spit is probably mucus not vomit since you see no stomach contents. They instinctively hide illnesses to prevent becoming a lunch. Usually by the time you notice an illness your Beardie is very, very sick.
I suggest a vet as soon as possible!

Aww your profile picture is precious ❤️‍🩹
Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
