I recently adopted my dragon from a very good home where he was well cared for, the people said he is eating 50-75% greens along with crickets and superworms, but Since I got him home he is hardly ever hungry, I make him fresh green salad every day, using different greens like curly endive, beet tops, swiss chard, kale and a little bit of fruit on top, like berries or melon. He never touches the greens at ALL. Once he ate a 2 raspberries but that was it, he seems to only want crickets, which I was giving to him but now I stopped since he doesnt touch his greens. Should I not offer him any insects until he starts to eat the greens? And also his skin has started to look a little baggy/wrinkly around his sides the last few days, does that mean dehydration? He has water in his cage but he never seems to drink.. I soaked him today, how often should I be soaking him, and for how long? Also he came with a 24" fluorescent tube light inside his cage which the previous owner informed me was a little past the 6 month mark, so I went and got him a new one but the store only had Repti-Glo 5.0 in the 24" size so I had to buy that, the light is positioned about 7" right above him (inside the cage, not on top) is that going to be good enough for him or should I try return it and find a 10.0? Thanks.
