From peoples experiences, when do Beardies tend to slow down on their eating? Mine has slowed down on how much she eats during the day. Especially her crickets. This has been going on for a bout a week now. I do not think something is wrong with her as her activity has not changed and she still has her regular poops. Nothing in her environment has changed. Using an infrared thermometer I measure her basking area at around 100ish and the other part of her cage to be around 80. I am not to sure of her age, but last month when we measured her she was at 12 inches long. She has been puffing her beard a lot more in the mornings to, which I have read beardies do that in the morning to stretch their beard.

Here is a picture of her

Sometimes moods (often caused by shedding) can slow appetite temporarily. In general they slow their appetites when they're fully grown. Between 1-2 years for the most part.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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!
