If your bearded dragon lives in your house then it might be the act that he is to cold and he is in between going into hibernation. if you have a garage put his cage in there so he is in a hotter environment. He could have a gastrointestinal infection:
Signs of gastrointestinal infection are weight loss, lack of appetite, and foul smelling diarrhea. This type of illness must be treated by a veterinarian.
What else can I help you with?
Why would a bearded dragon put his head in water and open mouth?
Perhaps he was getting a drink.
Why does my Bearded Dragon freeze when you put her in warm water?
Probably because Bearded Dragons would never submergethemselves in water, in their natural environment ! Bearded dragons are desert species ! The nearest they would get to water - would be to drink !
How do you know if a bearded dragon is not drinking?
Not many beardies will actually drink water. Mostly they absorb it through their skin which is why you need to mist and bathe them regularly
Should you get a bearded dragon or a tortoise?
i own both, they are the only reptiles i own, but i would have too say it depends on what you want. bearded dragons eat allot( about 6locusts a day) you bath them at least once a week they need allot of social time with you, and get scared easily, puffing out it bearded that will go black when scared. but they get too know you, you bond with them, and they get too love you, they also are awake at day (leopard gecko's are nocturnal) so you can watch them during the day rather than watching a sleeping gecko they need the vets allot more than gecko's Leopards gecko's eat about 1-2 locusts a day never need a bath but you can give them one. (bearded dragons need a bath as they do not drink out of a bowl, and a bath encourages them too drink) hardly ever need the vets can be left weeks without being handled and still be friendly, never get scared, never bite. do not bond with you, do not really care about you or who is feeding them. RE:actually bearded dragons CAN drink out of a bowl but they have to get inside the bowl to drink it so it has to be BIG
I never see my bearded dragon ever drink but it has lived for over five years how does it drink?
It will get a lot of the moisture it needs from its food - it WILL drink from a water bowl - but not very often, which is why you've probably never seen it.
Would it be a good idea to put a few pieces of greens in your bearded dragons water to try and get him to drink a bit?
No - Bearded Dragons get most of their moisture from the crickets they eat, and only require water for drinking if THEY want to drink it. You CANNOT force a reptile to drink if it doesn't want to !
How often should you bath a bearded dragon?
Bearded Dragons don't NEED a bath ! They are a desertspecies, who's natural home is the dry central area of Australia ! They would never seek out water to 'bathe' in, in their natural habitat - unless they wanted to drink it !
Why don't bearded dragons not drink water?
It'll drink when it's READY ! They don't necessarily drink every day, as they get a lot of moisture from the food they eat.
Do bearded dragons drink milk?
No they don't ! They barely even drink water as they get almost all the moisture they need from their food !
Bearded will not drink or eat?
Take it to a VET - there may be some medical reason why it's not eating or drinking !
How often do bearded dragons urinate?
You very rarely see a bearded dragon drink. Spraying the beardies is popular amongst owners to ensure the beardie stays hydrated. Beardies will also get water through their fresh greens. Spraying a little water onto greens is another idea.
How hot does water have to be for bearded dragons swim in?
Bearded Dragons DO NOT need to swim ! They are a DESERT species - native to central desert area of AUSTRALIA ! The only time they need to be anywhere near water - is to drink !
