From what I have noticed with a few of mine, at that age, they are teenagers and it takes till they are a little older to fill out some.

You also should take him to the vet & have a fecal done to see if he has worms.

Dragons need to be tested and treated regularly for internal parasites.not saying yours has anything it's something you have to do with dragons.

Take a fresh stool sample to a vet for a fecal exam.
