Hi. I have a 2 yr old beardie, she has not really eaten in the last month. I was thinking she was going through brumation, but she should have come out of it by now. Last year this time, she had the same behavior and then layed eggs a few weeks later. However, unlike last year she is starting to lose weight. I have some Oxbox Carnivore Care from the petstore and some squash babyfood, however she is refusing both of those. I bath her quiet frequently now, just to keep her hydrated and she will swim around in the water and also dunk her head under for a bit as well as drink it. Does anyone have any ideas on what else can be tried to entice her to start eating again? She is in a custom 120 gallon viv with her heat lamp, daytime lap and UVB lighting. I have the gauges to monitor her temperatures and humidity and they have all been in the normal ranges. As well, she has a fountain in her viv that she hangs out at on occasions.

I have attached some photos that show how she is now.
