Why that can be true and be right i always have to question why is it at subpar levels if it is the case

It isn't subpar necessarily. It indeed can be something you're feeding him that's the problem. Human beings lack a digestive enzyme for fully breaking down a type of starch in beans. This results in a sugar making it all the way to the lower intestine where it gets consumed by bacteria there, which produces gas. Think of this stuff as "beano" for reptiles
