I have had my beardie now since Saturday and he still hasn't had a poo. He has been eating some greens and maybe about 10-15 locusts. Maybe a few more. I have given him 2 baths to try and encourge him but still nothing. I have rubbed his belly to check for impaction but all feels well. He seems...
I will give him another bath tonight and leave him in a bit longer. I did notice we was a little more active after his bath so maybe after a bit longer he might even surprise me and start eating some food. Here's another pic for you. hehe

He is currently in a 5ft viv, I have checked all the temps and they...
Welcome to my new dragon (Buzz), this is my first dragon so it's all still new to me. I picked him up as a 7 month old but he is still settling in a bit as he not eating as much as I would like but I will give him a week and see if he gets his appetite back. I know his viv looks a bit bare but I...
