The effects of bearded dragon brumation are Sleepiness and a decrease in eating but they will wake up and eat normally. If your bearded dragon does not eat foods like pear, apple crickets, leaf greens and various vegetables at all, does not wake up and twitchy movements in the limbs, your bearded dragon is suffering from stress and could possibly end up in dead.
As long as your dragon is healthy it is not dangerous. If you have any concerns, a fecal check should be done prior to brumation.
"Winter Shutdown" for a Bearded Dragon is called Brumation. You can tell when they go into Brumation by their activities. A Beardie will slow down, sleep more, eat less, just seem tired all the time and sometimes they will even find a place in their tanks to hide. Some Beardies will not even want to be held during this time and won't use the wash room by themselves.
After brumation, a bearded dragon's beard usually turns black because it wants to mate, and it usually gets hyper and runs around alot. Sometimes if a bearded dragon's beard keeps turning black, and it becomes listless, as if dead, be on guard. If this is happening, take your beardie to the vet right away.
Bearded Dragons don't really hibernate, they go into what we can Brumation. In Brumation they will slow down, sleep more, sometimes they won't eat and they will keep their bodies cool. They go into this state usually in the fall when the temps outside start dropping lower.
When bearded dragons "hibernate" it is actually called brumation. You do not need to lower the temps and all that, it is not necesary. They may go into a little semi brumation period all on their own during winter months, it is possible. The only time this is recommend is when someone is breeding them, it is still not needed then, but just proven helpful. So no, you don't need to.
Are its sleeping patterns different? Does it randomly sleep throughout the day? If it is sleeping at unusual times, this can often mean brumation. Do you see it constantly wanting to burrow? If it keeps trying to burrow, then it might want to go into brumation.
