Hi!!! I rescued a neglected beardie named Rex about a year and a half ago. I got all the stuff from his previous owner. He was never super active and I don’t know how old he is I just know he’s at least over 5 years old. But he was fine and sort of playful for a year and a half I even replaced his bulb the day I got him I love him so much but he just now stopped eating and is limp and won’t move. I researched and realized he doesn’t have the correct lighting or diet because he won’t eat veggies so I feed him live bugs calcium and the flukers adult bearded dragon food and he loves that. But I think he’s suffering from MBD. I have always added calcium to his food and recently started giving him multivitamin powder too. Then I found out you’re not supposed to give them calcium every time they eat I just got him the best ubv light and basking bulb that they recommended at a trusted reptile care store. I was wondering if I should keep the uvb light on constantly until he’s feeling better? Maybe even the basking light? Because I don’t think the temperature in his tank was ever well maintained. I also just upgraded him to a 120 gallon tank. I’d appreciate any tips anyone has for me. I want him to be happy and healthy
