Hi, I'm new to reptiles and I just got my first bearded dragon five days ago. He's very small because i got him at petsmart and they generally only carry beardies that are a few months old. When we first brought him home he ate a few crickets but the next day he didnt want anything to do with them. We then tried wax worms to see if that would entice him into eating and he ate two but after that he didnt seem interested in those either. I had a reptiglo uva/uvb coil bulb and a 75 watt basking lamp but i heard the coil was bad so I got the reptiglo 10.0 linear tube. He's been keeping his eyes closed pretty much all the time and im not sure if its the light or if hes just napping. He also has stress marks and doesnt really move around his enclosure until the lights go off at night and even then he doesnt move much. Im very worried that he isnt eating and that he doesnt seem to be very active during the day. I'm not sure what to do anymore, I really need some help.
