I got Flynn a little over a week ago from Carolina classic dragons, he's 3-4 months old 9 1/2 inches and he hasn't eating since i've brought him home. He just got over a shed but he still doesn't seem to have any interest in eating. He is in a 40 gallon tank with a reptisun 10.0 uvb and a zoomed 100w basking bulb. his cool end of the tank is at 84 and the hottest point of his basking spot is at 112. I've closed off 3 sides of the enclosure to help him adapt a little better. I soak him every other day for about 6 min and he sometimes lowers his head to have a drink. I've been offering phoenix worms since i've read they are higher in calcium than crickets,but he just looks at them and continues basking. it's been almost two weeks ! How long can he go without eating?!! The worms are there for the taking, he won't starve himself will he? when i take him out of his tank he is plenty active and alert. It's the not eating that seems to be the only problem. Am i doing something wrong? The phoenix worms are super squirmy so he has definitely taken notice of them moving around but he just looks at them. I've tried crickets dusted with calcium but he wouldn't go after them. When I was trying the crickets i made sure they weren't too big but still nothing. I took him to the vet and he said he was a good color and weight but he didn't test for parasites.
