I recently homed 2 baby dragons when they were about 3 weeks old. My aunt had a couple dragons that decided to mate and these were the result. I put them both in a 10 gallon tank and they were both thriving, but over the course of last week I noticed one has out grown the other. I've then started noticing Alduin ( my sickly baby ) eating less and less and becoming very dark. He also seemed to have a narcolepsy issue at hand as well. So with all of those issues combined I've been closely monitoring him. He is letting my other baby bask on him so I chalked that up to him just being the submissive one but started looking online for more information about his seemingly sick ways. I've come to the conclusion they needed to be separated immediately, so I went and got alduin his own 10 gallon setup. Its been 4 days with him being isolated and stocked with the opportunity to eat fresh veggies, live pin heads, mealworms, and the juvenile buffet blend pellets. He hasnt touched any of the food, he just sits with shallow breaths and closed eyes, although he has had his color back since i removed him from his dominant brother. I know its not my lights or setup causing his sickness. My question is has anyone experienced this and come out with a victorious outcome? Does alduin stand a chance and with him not growing at all this past 2 weeks will he always be stunted? I'm sorry for the long post but I love this little guy and hope he survives. Only thing I can do that seems to help is lay his tiny body on my bare chest and have contact with him while I'm home, he turns bright yellows and green when I do. Thanks for any advice.
