New baby Novais!

[LeoEyes]

I got a new baby beardie on tuesday, hes quite the precious little bugger. Still small but has a fat little belly on him. He's reall friendly, esspecially for being a baby and will hop onto my hand and sit on it if I stick it in his tank. He's been handling baths like a champ and is eating though not as much as I would like. I'm thinking likely due to relocation stress. He is already eating a variety of foods though, crickets, roach nymphs, little silkworms and hornworms as well as nibbling on his salad. So Im thinking he'll pick up in his eating once hes all comfortable.

Here he is showing off a teeny beard.

Hes adorable! Its great that he is already willingly jumping onto you...it usually takes a while for a new baby beardie to trust/become comfortable enough to approach their human like that.
Its normal for them to not eat much the first few weeks in a new home. Sometimes, they just don't eat too much period...my Cinder boy only eats about 7-9 crickets a day with a few phoenix worms and he is perfectly healthy besides his smallness for his age.
How long is Novais? (great name btw!)
