Beardie back to normal....?

RaffertyReptiles Sep 29, 2003 02:24 PM

i posted like a day or two ago about my bearded dragon being very lathargic and just lieing on the ground.. and i got back a couple of answers saying that hes probably ready to brumate. but today he is eating, basking and he pooped so now hes acting normal i don't know what the deal is maybe he jsut had a stomachache or something i took the poop to the vet so we'll find out what was wrong either later today or tomorrow

Good move, getting a fecal done. Some dragons do a semi-brumation, where they'll slow down & quit eating for a few days, then perk back up to their old selves for awhile. At any rate, it's best to check for parasites even though his behavior could be normal for him. Let us know what the fecal shows!

Good to hear he's back to normal. Sometimes they just get like that for a few days and you never really know why. Glad you took in a fecal sample though.
