So we got our beardie on Friday. He's around 8 months old and around 13 inches or so.We didn't feed or bother him the first night so he could get used to his viv. On Saturday and Sunday we fed him collard greens in the morning and as many crickets as he would eat in the evening.
On Monday at the advice of a few people here I gave him crickets in the morning, greens around midday, and more crickets at night. He ate like 5 or 6 crickets in the morning, one little leaf of collard greens in the morning, and 4 crickets at night.
I was a little concerned by his lack of appetite, but not too much. Well this morning after letting him warm up for 2 hours I tried to give him some more collard greens and he wouldn't touch them. So I went out and bought him fresh organic mango and green beans. Chopped and prepared everything for him, put it in and he eyed it but hasn't touched it yet.
I should also note he's passed solid waste everyday since Sunday(this morning included), so he's not constipated. Also he has been stressing himself a bit getting agitated at his reflection. I bought some white poster board and intend to line the bottom lower half of his viv with it around the sides so he won't be stressed by it.
Is this normal behavior? Do you think
