I'm worried about 1 of my dreaded dragons?
So we got 2 bearded dragons a while ago and they started off doing well. Our female who was a little bigger to begin with was obiviously eating more food but our male was keeping up with her and gaining weight. They were both doing so well we went from the 10 gallon tank to a 20 gallon tank. They were both doing great they adjusted to the new tank quickly and seemed to really enjoy it. But now our male has pretty much stopped eating and lost a lot of weight while our female is eating about 20 sm crickets a gay and rapidly gaining weight. We have them separated now so she can't take his food. He eats maybe 1 cricket a day. Is it normal for them to shut down for winter this early? Or should I be really worried?

Turn up the heat and offer green leafy veggies mixed with a good commercial food. Keep them separated, you were right about that. Check your UVB lamp, they need to be replaced every 6 months to 8 months.

What is the temperature of the males tank on both ends. Warm side should be 95- 110 degrees and the cool side should be 85 degrees. Also do you have proper UVB lights? UVB spectrum bulbs of at least 10.0 will stimulate appetite in beardies and you should be providing atleast a 50 gallon tank for each dragon. Sounds like yor a begginer
