A few of you guys may know me, I stalk the forums' when I have time. Alot probably don't, but I'm not talking about me and my cutie today. Two days ago, my friend got her baby boy, he has a lame foot, but from what I am told he seems fine with it. My friend is worried that he isn't eatting, she syringe fed him a little today today to make sure he got some vitamins and calcium in him.
I told her that he is probably going through an adjustment period being with her. Her response was, she was told he didn't eat much when he was in the store.
Now her baby boy is only 6 inches long. So he really is a baby, anythoughts on why he may not be eatting? Could it be the adjustment period or something else? I don't know how long the store had him either. She got him for free, since they technically can't sell him with his bad foot. Either way, we'd both love some help eatting him to eat.
Also, she is using a redlight heat light. I've tried told I'm not sure that is a good idea, I have a none light heat projector. That I've heard, redlights can keep some dragons up during the night and bother them. She said, but he sleeps just fine during the day with his normal light on.
But dragons aren't supposed to sleep during the day right? They are Dinural animals, could the red light be keeping him up all night, making him too tired to stay awake during the day? What do you guys think and do you guys think I should keep trying to convince her to get a non-red light heat lamp? And if so, how do you guys think I could convince her?
This is her first scaley baby and I know she wants to make sure he is taken care of.
P.s. gave her the link to this post, so she will probanly be checking it frequently
