Hello all, I'm a new mom to Scooby the baby beardie, he's about 13 weeks old and is soooooooo cute. I love him
My only worry is that scooby lets me touch and rub him softly but wont let me hold him, he gets very scared, so I dont push it. Also we brought him to be sexed the other day as we got him at about 4 weeks and couldnt tell and since the trip he wont come near us and is hiding a lot. Is this normal, since the trip he has also lost his appetite and from what I understand now is the time when he should be eating most.
He doesnt let me bath him only showers, he loves them, His substrate is sand because that was what he was on when we got him, but we feed him with a tongs and make a tuting noise so when he hears this he climbs up the wood in his tank to be fed which is very cute. We got the whole viv together with a heat mat, uva/b bulb and heat bulb with scooby for €140 cos the pet shop were getting out of selling reptiles, which is a bargin and since we've added to the tank.
I just hope he's ok and not sick or anthing, is his behaviour unusual???
