So I would say he should be used to the new tank and at least eating more- are you feeding any staple feeders like crickets or dubias? Hes only eating supers and 5 at most? Hardly seems enough--- your basking temps ? you are taking w/ a infrared heat gun or a digital probe? You said he eats 5 and then will eat more later like how long later? Are you trying to feed him when he first gets up cuz they wont eat when they are cold - its usually takes 1-2 hrs after waking up --- sorry I keep going back and rereading your post - and what are you feeding later?

Imagine if you will. You're in your domain all comfortable, just laid back "all is good in the kingdom"!
Then out of the blue your trusted slave picks you up and, drops you in a strange world. You don't know where danger is lurking "could be behind any rock or limb". You don't know what is a safe spot anymore so you hide and observe.
This is how your dragon feels right now. It will help if you put his old decorations in there in the same position that they were in, in his other home. This helps the transition a bit.

I'm in Florida, too, and I get discoids. I don't have links on my phone, but look up Luna Roaches (they have web, ebay, and FaceBook, all good), lindasgonebuggie (heinous website but she's responsive and she has some good sales - I think use the blog link and then the panel on the right). There's also Joes Bugz, and Ovipost.com. Some reptile-specific shops also carry them. All but Ovipost are in FL. I think they're in GA. Other online shops that will ship to FL are reptilereadyfeeders and cape cod roaches. :0)Mallols":2ng4g2iy said:Sadly I live in Florida where Dubai roaches are illegal but I’m see if I can get some other.. and plz if you have a link sent it to me plzKarrieRee":2ng4g2iy said:Have you tried other insects?
