Hello,
my boyfriend and I bought a baby bearded dragon 5 days ago at the local petstore (petsmart). We got a 30 " x 12" x 12" enclosure for him. He got two heat lights( 1 for the day, 1(red) for the night) the temperature on the basking site is around 100 Fahrenheit, he also got a UVB Light. We were told to feed him small crickets, mealworms and greens. Well first of all he doesnt eat greens at all. We also got dry food(made for bearded dragon Juveniles) for him. He tried that only once and it seems that he doesnt like that either. Anyways, he had his crickets and mealworms, but today he slept quit long (until around 11 am) and he hasn´t eaten anything yet. Just a small tiny mealworm. We tried crickets, mealworms, greens, everything.But he isn´t interested in it at all. He is still quit active, but I´m a little bit worried because he stopped eating.
He had his supper quit late yesterday(around 9.30 pm) and he ate 5 crickets and some mealworms. Now I read that mealworms aren´t actually good for babys cause they cant digest the shell. But he popped this morning and everything seemed to be okay with that.I only gave him tiny worms though.
Is it possible that he´s just still full from yesterday night?
I feel so bad cause I just wanna do everything right for him...![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
