If he is trying to brumate and has food in his stomach it can rot and make him sick or worse. I would strongly suggest soaking him in a warm bath like you would put a small child in. Just up to his shoulders for 20 to 30 minutes (making sure the water doesn't get cold). If all goes right he should poop in the water. I have a girl that wants to brumate that I just got a couple of months ago and I can't let her brumate because i don't know her history.<br><b>References : </b><br>Mom to 3 beardies If he is eating and not pooping he could be impacted or his lights aren’t right so he’s not digesting his food properly.

Just do as you would normally and try to influence him back to normal feeding response ect.. Maybe raise the temp in your enclosure<br><b>References : </b><br> If the heating and lighting hasn’t changed at all then a brumation respond shouldn’t have happend.

One of the males roams the house at all times while the other 2 stay in their tanks. Elfin <my house roamer> will find a spot and hide for a month or two in the winter. On occasion I will find him and pull him out to make sure that he is doing well and put him in the dogs water dish. He stays there a good hour or so then he is off to his room to go back to sleep <on his own>. The other two tend to not go into this stage but we do keep their tanks around 85 year round. We have not had any health issues or problems with them. My healthyest and strongest dragon is the one that roams the house. He jumps, climbs and rides the dog like a horse around the house where the other 2 like to stay in the tank and don't move around too much unless we pull them out and play with them a bit.<br><b>References : </b><br> I have 3 dragons. 2 males and one female.

He started right about the time the outside temp went down, which lowered the indoor temp about 5 or 6 degrees. He's eating very little and not pooping regularly. I know this is normal, but I wanted to know weather he would come out of this on his own or if I would have to lower the temp and then bring it back up. On hotter sunnier days he's more active and eats a little more, but he still hasn't pooped. (it's been about 10 days since his last poop) My vet says that in the winter his beardies go for a whole month without pooping and his are very healthy. Should I do anything to make it easier for him or just wait for him to come out on his own? I found this about the subject: Brumation: A brumation or hibernation period is considered necessary for breeding cycles. Many bearded dragons will brumate or slow down eating and activity during winter months even without initiating any change in lighting and heat conditions. You may winter your dragons for approximately a two month period. We suggest following the natural light cycle and wintering during December-February. A slow reduction in daylight hours until you reach 8-10 hours of light per day helps to ease dragons into a brumation period. A temperature drop should also occur gradually until day temps are between 75-85 degrees F and night temps can drop to around 60 degrees F. Bearded dragons can safely tolerate temps down to the 50s. Before putting a dragon "down", be sure that your dragon is healthy and is free of undigested food. You may choose to provide a space in the enclosure for burrowing (we find aspen works well for this). Often dragons will dig and bury themselves for the winter. If you notice your dragon up and about, small amounts of food can be offered. A heavy hibernation period may not be necessary for many bearded dragons. When the winter period is over, slowly raise temperature levels to suggested highs and increase the photoperiod until it is around 14 hours of day to 10 hours of dark. I'm thinking or doing what this says. Please only respond if you've done this before or own bearded dragons. Thanks! He has two 10.0 Zoomed lights, brand new. His heat is kept at 120F basking and 78F on the cool end. He just pooped yesterday, and is now active and awake again, thanks to a slight increase in temp by placing a towel on the top of his tank.
