Answer 3

Yes it's normal. Are you feeding it both crickets and veggies? And there is special vitamin powder that you can sprinkle on top of the food that is important to them. My friend took her dragon to a vet and that's what the vet told her, that your dragon will be back to herself in no time but that the right diet is very important.

Answer 4

Yeah that sounds pretty normal as long as she continues eating soon.

Beardies and a lot of other reptiles get moody when they shed and are usually much less active during it.

A warm bath and a soft drying massage with a towel can help your beardie shed quicker and easier.

Answer 5

yes its normal

during shedding beardies eat less and they are also less active in winter

make sure you feed her a wide variety of foods including fruit and vegies [but not avocado its bad!] as well as vitamin suppliments. you can put this in their vegies or on their crickets or woodies

also make sure you have enough heat from the heatlamp and mat- but dont use a heat rock as it burns their tummies!

hope that helped
