hey everyone,
my dragons a little more then 6 months old and he's rather small for his age(at most 10 inches, probably closer to 9).. i used to feed him twice a day and he would eat close to 25 crickets at a time... when i fed him phoenix worms he ate about 15-20 at a time... he was also shedding pretty normally; once or twice a month...
over the last 5 weeks he barely eats. i started to feed him more phoenix worms than crickets about 3-4 weeks ago. In the beginning he would eat them without a problem, but after about the first week he barely touched them anymore. He went from pooping everyday to every other or third day. So i tried changing his diet back to crickets, but it didnt have much of an affect. i gave him close to 30, but he only ate about 10-15. He also stopped eating his fruits and veggies too (romaine lettuce, kale, mustard greens, carrots, bananas, and apples).
i dont believe the change to worms caused this because he was showing this behavior before the diet change... Any ideas for whats going on???
the tanks a 30 L for now
heat temps are around 102
cool temps are around 77
night temps are about 67
i use a reptisun 10.0
the tank
