What is Wrong with my Beardie?

Hello Everyone,

I am really worried about my Dragon, he has been very lethargic the past week, and when I came home he was all balled up in his hide-which he never does. I am afraid to move it because I do not want to scare him or make it worse.

I did notice a little bit of shed in his enclosure, his temp was about 94, on the warm side. And he is over a year old. I just don't know what I should do at this point.

Hi there.....he's probably fine, many larger dragons will do that in the late summer/ fall. Some are nearing brumation time when they may sleep for a few weeks/months. Some just slow down for a bit without actually sleeping, so as long as he's healthy + good weight there should be no problem. Are his temps. the same as they've always been ? Is his UVB bulb still producing UVB ? Some of them continue to produce light but lose their effectiveness as far as producing the needed UVB rays after 6 months. What type of UVB do you use ?

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!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
