I recently adopted a new dragon, age unknown, and it has been a challenge. My dragon Simon is always laid back, loves baths, has a fascination with buttons, eats his greens with no problem, AND hunts like a champ.
Juniper on the other hand hates being soaked, and held and most worrisome she doesn't like to eat unless she's "hand-fed"
If I'm not holding her food out to her in a small cup then she won't eat it. I had thought at first her eating troubles were from being moved to a new home but she will eat just fine if the food is held out to her but she won't do the work to hunt down crickets herself.

Does anyone have some helpful advice. It's not that I'm not willing to hand feed her, it would just be nice if she would hunt some crickets down to eat and get some movement.

My lizard Lily is quite a lazy hunter. She wouldn't even bend her head down to get a worm so it had to be on a rock so she wouldn't have to move. I transferred her over to crickets but she wouldn't chase them. So with a tip from CooperDragon I threw them in the fridge for about 20 minutes before I fed them this to her. This really slowed them down so she didn't have to move. Slowly she got used to a little bit of movement and will walk after the crickets a bit more then she used to. She still prefers to stand still though :p You could try cooling the crickets for a while before feeding them to Juniper. I hope this helps :)

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!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
