HI there. I got a two week old bearded dragon last week, it seems very healthy and it is quite fat. Although, it refuses to eat on its own. I have read that dragons this age should eat approximately two times a day, I have had to open its mouth and put the crickets in there. The temps in its tank is good and I am using a uv b light as well. It also sleeps a lot, even during the day. I am very worried about it. :? Please help?
 
How big is the tank. What kind of uvb light are you using what is the basking spot temp. Do you have any other animals in the house that could be scaring him causing him to hide? Since you got him has he eaten at all on his own or pooped?

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
