Hi!! *waves*

I did read that ! So everything in green is OK at his age then? I will look like one healthy person at the store tomorrow !

Yes, everything in green is good for any dragon of any age! My Nim's favorite green is wild, pesticide free dandelion greens. I get them from my organic yard.

Is something like this OK for him?

Small size.?

You guys are great seriously! thanks so much for your help!

Hmm, I would need to know the exact size of the crickets. Like 1/2 inch or 1/4 inch. Small, medium and large is kind of vague. Mealworms have too hard of a shell and risk impaction. I'm not sure about the size of the supers either. Are they small, medium or large? And phoenix worms are excellent. High in calcium and a good staple. And wax worms are a once a week thing. They are incredibly high in fat. Here is a site for the phoenix worms. http://www.phoenixworm.com/servlet/StoreFront And a good place to order crickets from is Ghann's. I can't vouch for them as I have not ordered from them yet. Neither I can for the phoenix worms. We don't have much money.

I know! People are so nice and helpful here. And I am happy to help you.

I second the idea of ordering your crickets from Ghann's. They're crickets do run a little on the small side though. So whatever size you think you need, you might want to go a size or two bigger.

Also, I recommend ordering Phoenix Worms directly from the dealer, rather than any of the resellers. "Phoenix Worm" is a brand name, so anyone else selling them has to have them shipped to themselves, THEN shipped to you.

Okay I *think* Im going to place an order for a introductory pack of Phoenix worms small size! LOL I can see my paychecks going quickly down the drain for this little guy!

Sand us now gone and I have put in the liner.. He has zero interest in his salad...I made him one this morning after going to the grocery store,all his wants is a couple crickets.

Ordered him some phonix worms hopefully if I mix those with his salad it will make him want to eat it.. He was not a happy camper when I had to move him and take out the sand. Put him back in his viv,and he chased out his crickets then basked until I had to go to work.I cannot wait until I can start bonding and holding him.. I didnt know they could have so much personality he gives everyone a funny look that walks past him,its adorable.

 

[ClydesGirl]

It's like torture not being able to bond with my new baby yet. He is completely terrified of me. I think it may take a while to build some trust with him.

He let me hold him tonight,after everyone went upstairs and downstairs was nice and quite,a picked him up and held him in my hand for a good 5 mins. He got a little squirmy at the end and figured that was a good time to let him go back in. <3

Sounds like a good little step! He will be a snuggle bug in no time. :wink:

 

[anc90]

Im a very excited mommy! I love the little held tilt it makes my heart melt,told him all about my night.

Held him today,little guy fighted falling asleep on my chest. He kept closing his eyes then thought he was missing something and woke back up. He's now basking on his hammock. So adorable. Here are some new pictures:
