I just got my babies a week ago Friday. They are finally eating better and I'm finding poop in various spots in the cage so I'm assuming are digesting it fine but I never see them basking in the warmest location in their enclosures. I've checked the Temps and they're usually around 108. So I don't think it's too warm but I never see them there and I'm home most of the day so see them often. Is this a problem? Is there anything I can do?

As long as you have a good temperature gradient giving them options, they should be OK. 108 is just right for the basking spot. They do tend to move around a lot during the day which becomes much more apparent if you take a time lapse video. As long as they are alert and eating/pooping regularly then they are probably content.

Ok. Thank you. My last dragon I got as an adult and she basked a lot so I don't know what to expect with the babies so want to make sure they're doing ok. Thanks for all the help.

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
