Hi Brittany, so he ate 15 crickets one day then? You got the Repti-Sun 10.0 fluorescent bulb? How far away do you have that from him? You also have the AcuRite digital that I posted the picture of? If so, did you place the probe end so that it is resting on (actually touching) the basking spot with the thermometer part way over on the bottom of the cool side, then wait about 45 min for the temp to stop rising before getting the final reading? What are the basking & cool side temps now?

How often are you bathing him? How often are you dusting with calcium & vitamins? It would be a good idea for you to check out the best greens to feed on this site: http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.com/Nutrition.html

How is his activity level? Would it be possible to post some pictures of him in his tank?

what are the odds you bought a Lawson dragon?

I would stop feeding live in cage all together the crickets can be tormenting your dragon while s/he sleeps, thusly curbing his/her apatite. Also a larger tank and a more stable heat gradient could make him/her feel better. What are your temps with the new thermometer?

I have been worried about my 2 not growing much but when I measured them they had both grown 2 inches in about 7/8 weeks! Have you been measuring because you might not notice! I measure my beardies by sitting them in front of a tape measure and taking a photo on my phone so I also have a record.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
