I think i'm going with Josh's thought, they are probably just adjusting to not having their buddy with them. Sounds like they are coming around.

I have a similar issue with my beardy Scotty, for several days, it was like he couldn't get enough to eat. Today, I was able to coax him to eat a few crickets and he has nibbled on his greens and veggies but his appetite is definitely off. He is about 10 months old and 16" nose to tail tip. He seems to be as active as usual and gets baths several times a week, looks plump and hydrated. Should I try the baby food to try and tempt him? Could he be getting ready to shed or brumate? I thought that was a winter thing. Any help much appreciated.

It's me again about my beardy Scotty. Just remembered something that might be a clue. After coaxing him to eat seven crickets yesterday morning, he went right into his hut, what I call his 'man cave' and took quite a long nap which is unlike him, usually he goes right up onto his branch to bask and digest.
