I have a 2 year old that's coming out of her first brumation, basking temp is 98 F, I just replaced her UV 17 inch tube last week. Diet is whatever salad mix I can find without spinach or iceberg, once a week she gets 20 medium crickets. All meals get some amount of a multivitamin powder with Calcium and D3 as the first 2 ingredients. Enclosure is a 50 gal former fish tank with Exo Terra sand mats, one hot cave, and a cold cave.
Over the past 3 months the area under her beard on her neck has steadily gotten larger. It doesn't seem to bother her, not even touching it. To the touch it almost feels like loose skin, no lumps, no hard spots, it doesn't move when she swallows. She didn't lose any noticeable weight during brumation but I didn't think to put her on a scale for an exact measurement. Tale, behind her eyes and underarms don't have noticeable fat deposits.
I have a vet appointment with the closest thing my region has to a reptile vet next week, they have multiple good reviews online mentioning Beardies specifically.
