Hello, I've had my Beardie for a little over a month now and so far he has settled in and started eating good and has begun eating salads regularly. But in the last two days I've noticed that he seems like his belly is full of air. He is still pooping twice a day and eating normal and he has...
I am just worried because he has not been eating nearly as much as a baby bearded dragon should. He maybe eats 5 crickets a day 9 tops. It has been like that since I got him 3 weeks ago
Karrie, the UVB bulb is a T8 and it does not have a plastic cover on it. In the picture I have the UVB bulb exactly 10 inches from the top of Kiwi's basking spot. Should I lower it? And should I take out/block the entrances to the hides during basking hours?

So, I moved his light setup to see if that would help. The UVB light is 10 inches from his basking spot and the regular white basking bulb is right next to it about 11/12 inches away as well. I thought that it was too bright in the tank, which is why my baby was hiding. But nothing has changed...
Thanks Karrie, I have been feeding him small crickets that are smaller than the width between his eyes. I just ordered Dubia roaches and Phoenix worms yesterday. As far as veggies I have been offering them daily, but he has only occasionally taken a few bits of kale and orange pepper from the...
I moved his UVB bulb up to 10 inches away but as soon as I put him back in his tank after his bath he crawled back under the hide. He has no interest in food tonight. It's been 2 weeks since his last shed, could he be getting ready to shed again?
