Hi we just purchased a young beardie from petsmart about 1 week ago and he seemed fine. Alert loved staying in his tree and no evident illness noted. Last night went to bed late and before that i was handling him and he seemed fine. I had previously had a beardie who unfortunately died at about 3 yrs of age.Getting back to my new beardie, this am when i awoke he was dead on the floor. I was needlessly to say upset and sad we are taking him back today for a new one. One thing the guy at petsmart told me which i found odd,only because everything i read and did with my prior beardie is, i dont feed him crickets until older and just let him have meal worms and veggies. Also another was with the lighting. He said he didnt use uvb on his and that you dont have too, just keep the dimmer at night on the beardie. My beardie stayed in his tree alot and i would handle him show him his bowl, but the last few days he would just go back to the tree.In the beginning he ate the lettuce from my hand. Does anyone have any feed back
