Hello,
I made a thread like this one like 4 days ago, but he is still doing it and im a worrying loving parent.
I got a new beardie a week ago, store told me he was 2 and a half months, but he looks a little bit older, hes been here for a week, so I say hes 3 months old. But he is up and active and alert for most part of the day (lights on at 8:30 am and lights off at 9:30 pm), until like 3 or 4 pm, he starts honkering down and eventually sleep in an hour or so, is it normal?
He is not eating as much as he should be for his age, but manage to eat something every day (not alot), like a few phoenix worms a day, 2-4 crickets a day, and sleep early.
I kinda of think its not normal and something is indeed wrong? My setup is all correct and verified by several people here, so I dont think its a problem with ym setup, maybe I need to take him to the vet?
Iv always thought its relocation stress still, but he seems very comfortable, social, and friendly to me and plays it off like he has settled in, but maybe he is not?
setup:
T8 24" desert fixture with reptisun 10.0 T8 tube, mounted 7"off the basking spot
temps are always 100-119 basking spot
90-100 hot area
75-85 cool area
I mean maybe that's just the way he is and he honkers down early
