Most babies wont eat their greens at 1st, just keep offering them daily, it may just be a bite or 2, but eventually he.she will eat them. And it could very well be the
uvb bulb thats causing the stress marks, Im glad uve decided to get the reptisun 10.0 TUBE. those coil ones hurt their eyes and can cause blindness! Ur much better off to just leave it off until u get ur reptisun and get t hooked up. Also, I agree mealworms are a no no, they carry an impaction risk. So def not worth it, plus they have very little nutritional value. so pretty pointless to feed anyway. That 40 gal could also be over whelming her, u may want to block part of it off until she gets bigger. But def switch ur uvb and stop the mealworms. Im sure her stress marks will be gone in no time. I too fell victum to buying a coil bulb bc that what I "needed" per pet store advice. Went thru the stress marks and wondering what was wrong, switched the bulb and had a totally different acting dragon! It rlly is amazing how much the lighting effects them. But I imagine itd be like us staring at the sun, and Im sure Id be pretty miserable too, lol. Also u didnt say what kind of thermometer ur using, I just want to say again that if ur using those dial ones (that stick on the glass) cause that what it looks like in the pic, u want to consider getting either a probe or infrared one instead. The dial ones arent accurate at all.
Again congrats! Keep us updated? Have u named him/her yet?
