Hi again all... not sure if I have an issue so can you please read and advise? My 5 month old dragon has been with me almost a week. he will not move an inch if I am in the room! He has eaten crickets but only if I leave the room and stay out for over an hour. I have bathed him twice in this time, he seems to like it ok, drank loads the first time but not the next. I have handled him each day just a little, he looks at me with interest when I am holding him and left alone will investigate his surroundings and bask, (I have spent 2 days out all day, he has ventured out by the time I get home and has eaten his bugs)
Does not go near his water or greens which is fresh daily and taken out overnight. I have waggled green things and dribbled the water into his bowl so he can see it but he has no interest in it at all.
I accept he will be shy at first and don't want to rush him but had hoped by now he would at least feel he can come out from under the shelf that is his bedroom and enjoy his surroundings and hunt his crickets even if i am in the room!
I am working on my laptop today, so am in his room. I put his lights on at 7am, fed him six crickets at 8:30, left the room for half an hour but have been working in here since, (it is now 10:30). He has not moved from his bed at all, his head is up and he is watching .....
Is this normal? Will he come round eventually?
