hi my name is kasey,
i am posting because my baby bearded dragon wich cannot be no more than 3 weeks old is not acting normal. i am a very expirienced with bearded dragons. we have 4. she is a hypo translusent on paper towels for now. she has a reptisun uvb uva bulb and her basking light is 107. i got her a week ago and she only has eaten 5 extra small dubia. i have been giving her critical care which she does eat. she wont drink fluids. i bath her daily. i gave her some diluted gatorade, acidophilus, calcium, multivitim, and medication to boost her apatite but it does not seem to be working. she wont bask for very long and is very lathargic. she also has a hard time keeping both eyes open at once. please help. when she eats or drinks the little that she does she seems to act like she is hiccuping

Kasey I am sorry you are having problems with your dragon. Have you been misting her?
I'm concerned about the medication, what is it and how are you using it? In a critter that young and that small, one has to be careful with meds and dosages.

At this point I'm thinking the best thing to do it to take her to a vet. Critters that won't drink fluids are at risk of dying from dehydration.
I hope for the best for her.
