So i had a cham now have beardie collard lizards. all were on a hunger strike starting to get so worried i gave the cham away to a breeder who seems to know alot. i dont know what to do any more... if they dont eat should i just not worry or what.. everyones saying its the time of the year but for starting in middle of winter this is really hard.

what is the temp in your enclosure and do you use a UVA light?

the beardie can bask at 105-110 and the collards are the same. all have uv lights and basking lights. i have asked about there enclosures around everywhere and have been told they are perfect. im so stressed about this

since i am not really versed enough for beardie, i will refrain suggesting anything to avoid making your more confused.
but, as far as chameleon goes, sometimes it usually because:

1. Temp too low. Need more UVA.
2. Bored with the usual diets.
3. sickness related.
4. just the season.

Mine start on hunger strike since yesterday. and only want to eat 2 crickets.
I have some new feeders for him.
We'll see what gonna happen..

I dont think the temp is to low, i actually went out and got smaller bulbs due to to much heat. the uv source is about 7 inches from the basking spot in both enclosures. for foods i have offered all superworms, crix, and butterworms. And sickness seems a little unlikly but it could be a possiblity. they are all as active as ever. so im thinking of going on a fecal frenzy and seeing what comes up. If it is seasonal it is nothing to worry about right? just keep them all hydrated and let them eat if they like?

if it is seasonal, then yeah.. they'll get over it.
but, i would rule out everything else first b4 getting content.

alright so a fecal should rule out any sickness?

not necessarily, but it would rule some parasites out.

trying to feed crix today wont eat those either. im thinking because all 3 are affected this must be because of the freezing cold weather going out side and the huge drop in pressure

It's most likely brumation.
