I may be being paranoid, but my baby beardie hasn't eaten hardly at all today.
I just brought him home yesterday. He seemed a lot more active yesterday. I could even handle him today without him freaking out.
Temperature and humidity are at correct levels.
I have heard of relocation stress, but I just want to make sure he will be okay.

He has relocation stress...Yes it's normal, and he might not eat for up to 2 weeks. It takes time for them to readjust to everything around them.

Okay thank you for the reassurance. :)

When he doesn't eat, he doesn't get the moisture from the food, so drip some water on his nose until he starts licking and see if he'll drink. If you keep him hydrated, you won't run into any problems from him not eating.

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.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
