I have had my bearded dragon Boga for over a year and we took him to the vet in december and got a fecal and everything looked fine. For a while, like a month or so before the vet his appetite was slowly decreasing from him eating anywhere and anytime, to him eating less, or to him only eating if he is comfortable somewhere that he put himself or if he has been sitting somewhere for a while. I dont know if that is because it is a little cooler outside and he can tell, but i just think it is strange. Since the vet,(they gave us an anti-inflammatory, in hopes that his stomach was inflamed or something) he brumated for about two weeks, this was his first brumation btw, and he started to get a little bit of an appetite again. Ever since he woke up his top jaw has been over biting the bottom one a little bit. He also spends a lot of the day either in the cooler side of his tank, under a bendy bridge for hampsters, or under his platform where he sleeps during the night. I was wondering mainly what the overbite could mean and also why he sleeps and if there is something i need to do to perk up his appetite. He is definently a good weight and doesnt lose much from not eating much. he is about 18 inches and 504 grams. yesterday i took him outside, and he saw the white bits in the concrete and tried to eat it :roll: :lol: but he wouldnt eat real food. when he was out in the sun he was being pretty active running around everwhere. i was just wondering if this was a stage that they go through, or if i need to do something about it. he is just a few months over a year old. Thanks!
p.s. he also only poos about once a week. i was wondering if he possibly has something wrong with his digestive system, like with the bacteria in it.
