My son has a water dragon that's about a year and half old. He was fine, never had any problems. He stopped eating about 2 weeks ago and is barely moving. We have left some super worms in his tank and he might be eating when we aren't looking. Last night I thought he was dead. We noticed a piece of mulch hanging from his mouth and it seemed to be stuck and he didn't look like he was breathing. My husband pulled it out and he acted like he was going to throw up. He started breathing(visibly to us), but he's still barely moving, no energy, and he let my husband hold him. He really looks like he's suffering. Not sure if this is something we're doing wrong. Is there a quick fix? All advice and suggestions much appreciated!

Thank you!
Sonya
