    New bearded dragon not eating.

    Funny thing is that he almost never uses the "stairs", he just jumps straight up or down from the platform (~8"), pretty good jumper !

    New bearded dragon not eating.

    All of last week he still wasn't interested much in food, he stagnated at 27 grams. Last Sunday we made him a new setup, I replaced the bricks and branch with a platform we made (foam+grout+shellac), I was a bit concerned with the branch because never was sure what kind of wood it was, but most...

    He is still not eating much. When i get him something new like phoenix worms or dubias he will really go after a few, say 6 or so but then that's it, next day back to maybe eating 1 or 2. I have been feeding him the baby food (squash turkey), he is still at 29 grams and NOT lethargic bt he...

    Another update: He still does not seem to eat all that much, I will put some crickets or worms in he will run aggressively after one or two and devour them, but then he will stop and star at me as if saying "ho right, I forgot, you are trying to poison me aren't you" :) Anyway so he has been...

    New bearded dragon not eating.

    Update: He still isn't eating much, but yesterday he was 23-24 grams so at least he isn't losing weight so far, also he is pooing about once a day. Saturday I got him wax worms, I know they are fatty and not ideal but until I receive the phoenix worms I wanted him to eat something. He ate about...

    Installed the 3' reptisun 10.0 yesterday. He still isn't eating very much. Measured him: Length : 9cm (3.5") snout to vent, 23cm (9") overall. Weight : 22 grams. I know there is a lot of variant in size & weight but is that in the acceptable range or do I need to try t feed in with a syringe ?

    Quick update: On Tuesday I added an halogen floodlight (60W) for extra brightness, it brought the temps up to 80-110 and also it's much brighter, he got more active right away. He is still not eating very much, 1 to 6 crickets a day at most and a little papaya with calcium, that's probably not...

    I just ordered a 36" Zoo Med Reptisun UVB 10.0 HO Light, 30W" & fixture, because it seem the zilla as bad rep and too small for my tank anyway. By the way I also removed the zilla plastic cover last night, not sure why they would put it if it blocks the UVB ?? I know I'm going to need the...

    New bearded dragon not eating.

    Hi, got a baby bearded dragon on Sunday, one of the bigger, sturdier ones. I prepared him a 4x2x2 enclosure before I got him. The first evening he ate some small/medium crickets(Sunday), ran after them and swallowed them, maybe about 6 or so, but I don't believe he has eaten anything since, he...
