I have had "Dusk", my 9 month old dragon for four days now.
On his first day, I was informed that he had been fed already, but still ate about three crickets that night.
On his second day, I tried feeding him in a seperate feeding enclosure, and he wasn't interested, so I tilted a small dish of crickets towards him and he ate about fifteen. He only ate once that day.
On his third day, I used the same method and he ate between seven and ten crickets. He also only ate once that day.
Now, on his forth day, he is uninterested in the crickets in the bowl, and blackbeards when I try to feed him in a seperate enclosure.

Additional information:

On his first day, he was incredibly lively, jumping up the walls and all...
On his second day, there was an incident in which he jumped into my hands. I let him climb onto my shoulder and then he jumped about a foots distance into a cardboard box and/or a wooden cabinet. He still expressed very lively behaviour after that, but then, that evening, started becoming lethargic.
As I have been in work, I have only seen him in the evenings and mornings of the last two days, but seems very lethargic compared to his former self.

Would it be of any help if I posted a picture of his enclosure?

I'll mention that to them. Have you tried locust ? I know you can get them there, as well as hornworms, phoenix worms and maybe even silks, though not sure about those.

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!
