    Default bearded dragon acting strange

    Hi everyone, i was wondering if anyone could help. I took my bearded dragon to the herp vet in toryglen for a check up. my beardie hasnt been eating so he gave him calcium and vits d3 as he was lacking. he also discovered worms in his poop. that was yesterday. but today my beardie is acting really strange. he is just sitting there looking really drained and his beard is black. not like his usual self. hes normally very active. could this be a side affect from the deworming medication he had at the vet? if someone could help me i would really appreciate it

    not sure about the worming causing pain maybe some discomfort, can i ask what you feed him and where you got him as worms in beardies are not that common. yes having a black beard is normally when they see another male or female they dont like the look of or something has ed them off lol he should go back to his normal self in a day or two.
