Hi, I'm a new beardie owner, and I got my BD on Saturday. Lewis is supposedly almost 4 months, and almost 10" long. He doesn't eat his vegtables at all, and I hear that youngsters are supposed to eat 20-50 crickets a day. He only ate 14, and I don't know if that's good or not. Help?

Hi. He more than likely has relocation stress. That can last a week or 2. Also most little ones don't eat veggies. All you can do is offer every day. :D

15 medium crickets per day is OK for a 4 month old.

When he settles in , he'll be destroying 20 per day maybe a few more.

Alright thanks, I just got home from school and I check on him, he's shedding! Which probably explains why he didn't eat this morning..

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
