I just recently got a bearded dragon and the same thing happened with mine. I asked the breeder who I bought mine from and they said it just means that the dragon is stressed out. There are many things that can stress out your dragon, including a new environment (or just having too many things in the cage), having any crickets in the cage overnight, taking them out of the cage too much, or if you are housing them together with other BDs that are larger than them. I covered my glass cage with paper so that she can't see out of the tank anymore and she got better already, and now she's even eating more crickets!! Hopefully this will help you out!!

How black is the stomach? If it is spotty [both black and white], then the dragon is either a little cold, or stressed. If it is msotly or all black, the dragon is probably way too cold! You should have the cage set up so that your pet can live in its cage habitat comfortably. I suggest looking at some care guides for beardies. This page is all about beardies: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearded_Dragon_(pet)] And this one part is specifically about the proper heating and lighting: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearded_Dragon_(pet)#Light_and_Heat] Hope that helps, Jackie!
