My dragon, Chocolate, usually poops every day, every other day or at the latest on day 3. He/She just turned 2 months old. I am on day 4. Chocolate is still eating normal from all I gather. He eats crickets because that is all he wants to or will eat. I gut load and hydrate the crickets to give the most to the dragon, since he won’t eat any veggies. So, should I worry??
I think he looks ok though and nothings seems strange with his behavior.
He has not been handled much because at first we were letting him settle in then he started shedding and that took 10 days or so. I have never held him. I thought I could give a bath, but I’d have to pick him up and I don’t know if he will be ok with that. Lastly, where and how do you give a bath? Should I be careful with cleaners I use before and after the bath so it won’t harm him? I tend to use mostly natural home made solutions and thought I could wash with vinegar and water, the container/sink/tub before he goes in. Any advice would be great! I am trying not to be a nervous wreck about a bath, handling him for the first time and the poop issue.
Oh and I’ve also noticed the humidity after lights on stays at 10-15%. Is that too low? What can I do to raise it? I spray water on him every day and sometimes spray part of the tank a little in hopes of getting it to 20%.
