I just recently got a 2-3 month old from petco on Saturday. Ever since I got home he has ate all together about 10 small crickets. It will occasionally take a bite or two of the chopped collard greens put his dish but nothing else. I have tried feeding with tongs and that doesn't work. I tried giving him "Baby bites" from nature zone baby pet food and it wont eat that either. I have also tried the little pellets moistened with water and no luck. It doesn't do much but sit on his branch and sleep or it will run around the perimeter of the glass almost like it is trying to run away. Also the first day I got him when I got home I noticed a yellow splotch on his belly that almost looks like paint.
The tank is setup I got from petsmart is the thrive 40 gal it included the following:
Screen lid with lock and feeding door
100-Watt essential basking soft bulb
26-watt desert UVB bulb
Two 8.5 inch dome lamps
Two thermometer/Hygrometer
And I have done some research and am getting a uvb tube light first thing Friday morning because I read the one that comes with it is not good for them. I would post pics but this is my first time using this and I'm not sure exactly how yet, but I'm really worried. This has been my dream pet forever and I'm worried sick he will die because he is not eating enough!!!
