It's only been a few days so give it some time. Make sure you get water in to him by mixing it with the baby food.

I was actually thinking of doing this I just didn't know if I should or not
See one thing that is weird is I took him a bath and put him in a little box I have with his basking light on so he could warm up while I cleaned his tank and his belly was all white but I put him back in his enclosure and the stress marks are all over him again so would a smaller enclosure be better for now?

Oops, I apologize....my response here was meant for the other poster with the limping baby. Your dragon's tank is not too big or tall so leave him in it. I mentioned taking the hide out so he has to bask, but put it back in in the evening. A basking stick like I have in my pic is easier for him to get around on. I'd take the hammock out too to be sure he can't hurt his leg snagging his claws in it .

Do you know why his tummy was so white in a cardboard box but then I put him in his tank and it got stress marks again

That can happen for many reasons unknown....stress marks are not really understood and not always related to stress.

Hello,

How is your boy doing today, any improvements?
Has the bump on his leg gotten any better?
I hope he is eating well & that he is becoming more active, too.
Let us know how he is doing.

Well I fed him a little bit of baby food he ate three crickets the bump on his leg seems to be getting bigger and seems to be going on the other leg but he does stand on all four legs just fine he walks fine and everything it's just those bumps he still has strong stress marks on his tummy which worry me as well I have a 10.0 reptisun bulb it's a t8 but I have a t5 fixure so ima order the bulb soon I mean he doesn't look in pain I just feel like something is not right with him I bought another beardie she's 7 months old and she's doing just perfect they're in separate tanks and it's the same setup so I just don't understand

Can you post a new pic of the bump? He might have a cyst, if it's growing it might be time to get it tested or removed at a vet.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
