My friend has a beardie bout 14 months old,hes eating and pooing fine my concern is his skin seems quite saggy and his stomach seems very large.When he sits up his belly just seems to be saggy and hangs down.He used to be kept on wood chips when he 1st had him could his stomach still have some in and cant digest them even though he still goes to the loo?

I cant really picture it to be honest... is there any chance of a pic?
Does he get water? Saggy skin is a sign of dehydration.

Is the skin actually saggy and loose? Or just a fat stomach?

Does he get plenty of food?

Hes never been fed as much as my beardie,Maybe a little salad and most days 5 or 6 medium locusts,When i go at weekends he jumps down off his log almost frantic to eat but obviously as hes not mine i cant keep offering him locusts but im sure held eat more than what hes given.Could it be he doesnt get enough food and needs to fill out into his skin?

He needs to have veg offered daily, at that age he will be mainly eating veg but still does need the livefoods.
Until I see a pic I cant say what it is though sorry.

my male beardy has a big belly and he has done since i got him all he does is lie on his rock all day i think the reason beardys are so fat is cause they dont burn there fat off
(hes been burning some fat off lately tho)the only time he moves is when hes got a chance for some humping with my female lol

sarah
