What is wrong with my Bearded Dragon?
My Bearded Dragon is losing weight, FAST, and he threw up like 8 of his crickets out of 1 1/2 dozen. I can’t get him to eat anything but crickets and I’m just at a loss, I don’t know what to do. Any REAL ADVICE will be great, and don’t BE MEAN!
Thanks so much!
He is about 2 feet long, he is a good size dragon.
The main picture that some of you are missing here is not that beardie wont eat, its that its throwing up.
The temps in the tank, and or parasites are usually the cause for this problem. Take him to the vet they do a stool check and give him medication if it is a parasite.
The BASKING area (not on the ground where he actually sits to bask) should be between 100-115*f. The cooler side should be between 80-85*f or so.
After you get this situation under control you should try other foods as well. Try using meal worms and wax worms as well. Wax worms are better than meal worms. Also, always offer fresh fruit and veggies- this is a necessity for a dragon to be healthy! A juvies food should contain about 20% fruit and veggies and an adult about 70% a day. make sure to always dust any food you give them.
In the meantime a simple trick to get veggies and fruit into ur dragon is to use baby food and a medicin syringe, Mix some calcium dust in and force feed as much as he can consume, try to get atleast 1 syringe full.
