Hello there! I am new to the Forum. So- HELLO
I got my baby beardie Drogon 8 days ago. First-time beardie owner. I know they need some time to settle in but he really worries me. He is in a 40-gallon tank with his basking spot on 110F and his cold area on 85-95F. I got a 10.0 UVB light reptisun. I feed him crickets, dubia roaches, and greens. He's been eating on and off but only a couple of feeders and one piece of green a day. I offer him his food every 2 hours. He usually only eats once a day. I powder his food with calcium and vitamins. I feed oranges and carrots to the feeders. He hasn't been eating since yesterday. All he does since yesterday evening is hiding. I got him standing with me on my desk so he can see me and my fam and gets used to us. I try not to take him out. He poops daily. I turn his lights off and on at the same time daily. The company I got him from said he's about 2.5 months old. Could it be that he's going into shed mode? I am really worried and on my wit's end. I just want him to be a happy lil dragon. Please help!
