I have a lethargic sleepy Central Beardy (Chompa).
About 3 months ago my son put a shoe box in the cage. Chompa promptly curled up inside the box and seemed to start to hibernate. I let it go for a couple of weeks thinking he knows what’s good for him, but given it was summer a very warm (35 )I didn’t think it was a good idea to let it go on. We took the box out of the cage but now he curls up in the corner or for days on end. If stimulated ie with live food or a run around the house he seems fine.
He gets plenty of natural sun vitamins and calcium. The lights are on during the day both heat and UV (it’s not all that cold yet). I’ve taken him to the VET (reptile specialist) and he says he looks fine.
I had many of Eastern Beardies and other species when I was a kid, and thought I’d seen it all. Not sure what’s going on with this guy, any suggestions?
