I had the same issue. I switched to mealworms and my ZZ loves them. He is close to 3 months old and he is doing very well on 15-ish mid size worms plus veggies a day. No need to over feed your tiny dragon with 60-100 crickets a day as some people suggest. I personally do not buy the theory...

Hey man, all is good, we are just exchanging different opinions .......

Solarmeter 6.5 That`s exactly what I have. Unless my meter is completely screwed, I should be getting pretty decent readings from this device then ..... As mentioned, there is a UVB gradient across the tank , UVB light is not at the same spot as basking light, actually it is mostly on the cool...

As far as coverage, whole area in the tank (quite small) is covered, UVB reading is the lowest in the corners around 40 mW/cm2 and gradually goes all the way up to 130-140 right below the light. On the other hand, do they really need constant exposure to UVB whole day (10-12h)? That would equate...

I have exactly the same issue, cute 2 month old citrus Hypo, just got it 5 days ago.... First day I fed him some mealworms as I did not have any crickets. Next several days he was eating 3-4 crickets per day but he loves veggies, carrots and parsley. He eats more veggies than bugs. Basking spot...
