He’s been that way since he was ~ 4 months old. He’s now approximately 6 years old. He’s got a huge appetite especially compared to the 4 previous dragons I’ve had.
You’re saying he’s always in pain/distress?
When I first got him from a breeder, I took him to a veterinarian to have him checked out. All was good but the vet noticed he does hiss. This is true to this day. Sometimes when I pick him up and he doesn’t want to go he’ll hiss.
None of the other 4 dragons I’ve had would hiss.
Lets go over the lighting -- any colored bulbs in the tank? What are you using for UVB ? brand and bulb coil or tube??? Lighting has a big role in the behavior ---------- basking temps and how are you taking them? NO stick ons they are inaccurate

No colored bulbs. Zoomed Reptisun 10, 24” tube.
His viv is 4’x2’ made from melamine.
I use a infrared temperature gun to make sure his basking temp is 110F and cool side around 80F.
I appreciate your help.
