Rankin's acting strange

[rhendriks]

Crickets will chew holes in your beardie, they need to be removed. If your going to feed crickets it's best to feed them in a different container

i started off doing that when he was smaller but thought i was taking away his hunting game or something lol. ill go back to feeding in a container

last night he just crawled into his skull to sleep around probably 5-6pm which hes never done and slept all through the night. hes still sleeping this morning. still hasnt eaten or pooped. should i wake him up and get him to bask? i don't want to make him uncomfortable or force anything. i did get a probe thermometer, his basking spot is 125-120°. waiting for a more accurate lowest temp reading tonight

That is way too hot - please get it adjusted - surface basking temps 105-110 for a baby 6 months 95-100

will crickets bite him if he's not eating them?

Yes, they can bite if he doesn't eat them. the most common area they will bit is the legs or the tail.
