Hi everyone - I am a new beardie owner and my little guy is probably 2-3 months old. He is setup in a 20 gallon viv and the temps on both sides look good, he has a nice night and day setup with adequate UVB lighting. I supply him fresh veggies and insects (not live) daily. Since bring him home 5 days ago I am noticing a few things that worry me:
1. He sleeps alot, what seems to be more than normal, if I pick him up or handle him he eventually seems to "snap out of it" and get some energy, he is very friendly.
2. He does not appear to be eating, I notice very little to none of his food has been moved, do I need to feed him live crickets now?
3. He displays behaviour that concerns me such as scratching at the viv glass or acting a little crazy, he sleeps or stands against it many hours.
4. He seems to have lost a bit of color and is much whiter than normal.
His bowel movements do not seem unusual.
Does anyone have any advice on what might help me to help him?
Thank you
