Hey all,
So we've been having issues with our 3 month old beardie. He all of a sudden stopped eating all insects 1 week ago. He was on a staple of crickets and collard greens before he stopped. We've tried doing butter worms and BSFL without success. He's sometimes active but mostly lethargic. We started feeding him sweet potato and turkey, carrot and butternut squash baby food mixed with calcium and multivitamin but we're lucky if he takes tops 1/2 ml of the baby food. We've been trying warm baths while massaging him because he hasn't pooped in quite some time either. We have a T5HO 10.0 Reptisun tube with reflector hood sitting on top of his mesh lid. His basking spot is approximately 6 inches away from the tube. Temps are 114F at his basking spot and 72F at his cool side. He's showing stress marks pretty much constantly with the only time that they're decreased when he's basking. He's in our family room which is a high traffic area with both kids and dogs. He's been great up until this point but I don't know what to do to get the poor guy to eat. Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome. Thanks in advance.
