    Concerns with my bearded dragon's eating and health

    I have some concerns about my bearded dragon's health and eating habits. He has completely stopped desiring food on his own.

    Small guy

    So my lil beardy less than 4 months hasn't eaten by himself since the day we brought him home. I have to try to get him to eat lettuce, carrots, and meal worms. Should I try a different food source. He also drinks mad water. All he does is bask. Also his hind hip bones are kinda prominent.
