He came home last night for the first time and once I put him in his viv he ate 6-10 crickets right off the bat.. (this was at like 7-8pm) He has not had a stool all day. Im wondering if hes impacted or if its something related to relocation stress. He ate 2-3 crickets total today.

Basking Temps are 105-110*
Mega Ray MVB 13 inches from his basking spot.
I gave a warm bath today for 20 minutes.
He looks like he might be 7 - 8 inches long.

I wouldn't worry right now, it's only been a day. Give it some time. Also, 6-10 crickets isn't many at all, so it could affect the time it takes for him to produce stool. After he settles in he should start eating much much more. Give it a couple more days before you worry.

If you can, you should take him to a herp vet near you as soon as you can :) baby beardies need to a fecal test and a little check-up. Congrats on your new baby.

He had a stool today.. urates were white .. LOTS of stool all in his salad :? I seen some sand in there.. They did have him on sand afterall. Think he will be ok since he passed some stool today? Im sure if there is some sand in there its working its way out now. Since he seems to be eating more and more with each day that I have had him.

Another question.

I use the Calcium Without D3 (using 100watt MVB) 5 times a week? and the multivitamin 2 times?

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!
