  1. this link might give you some clues

    but you are best off to take to a vet.. is he using the heat lamp?  


  2. Bring him close to your ear - if you hear him whipsing while he breaths than he may have a respiratory infection and you need to take him to a vet. I would also look into calcium deficiency this is common in older beardies.

    Mine usually gets like this after eating meal worms and superworms. Have you been feeding him alot of those lately - if so then go to mainly crickets and of course his veggies. They can also become inactive due to not getting enough UVB and heat - check all lighting and temps. If the UVB light seems to have lost its blue hue then it needs to be relaced.

    Scan down to disease and disorders..

  3. PEREZ-- THAT IS NOT ALL THEY DO!!! Healthy ones usually have energy.

    Its true there might be a lack of variety in diet, lack of UV light or a respiratory disease, but maybe its the temp. Dragons sleep when stressed- this is your sign that you need to change something. I would start with temp- raise it up a degree or two and gradually until its about 78. If he's stressed he won't eat much or at all. If he already ate he may regurgitate it, they need heat to digest. Try the lamp out first because it's the easiest thing to change.  

  4. Well thats all they do unless you take them out.
