As Angiehusk suggests, give us more details about your setup. As he sounded healthy and eating well when you bought him, it does sound like something is missing or not correct in your setup.

Give us details about the cage he's in, what his basking temp is and air temp both at the hot end of the cage and the cool end. What sort of substrate you are using? How are you measuring temps (ie stick on thermometer, digital thermometer with probe, temp gun etc) what size insects are you feeding? Are they gut loaded beforehand(where applicable)? Are you providing UVB light? How many daylight/nightime hours are you providing?

How old is the dragon? Do you take him out of his cage frequently?


The more information yu can give us about his care and habitat since you bought him...will help us figure out what needs to be changed in your setup.
