Please go over surface basking temps - Surface basking temps should be taken w/ a digital probe thermometer-and be 95-100 stick ons are inaccurate - uvb coil long tube fixture? These things I am asking are reasons your dragon will not eat- if they are in correct
ok and how old? Distance should be 12-15 inches directly above the basking decor and bulb should not be over 11 months old - I always recommend changing them out every 10 11 months unless you have a good solar meter and getting good UVI readings -- you can try getting him some reptiboost for appetite enhancer-- I would try lowering your surface basking temp to 95-100 -- see if that helps - for a 7 month old he should be eating like a pig ---- what is the diet now
Please tell me his diet --- he needs to have a staple feeder insect --- dubias crickets BSFL or silk worms --- fresh salads every day Nutrition Content
ignore the kale info its outdated and is a great staple feeder --- please get some BSFL www.symtonbsf.com order large and put them on top of his salads first thing in the morning drop them in his bowl in front of him to get his attention --- dragons should not be eating crackers!!!! here is a bowl that is good for salads and BSFL to keep them in it Amazon.com
Please post a pic of the dragon and his lighting / tank --- are you using any colored bulbs?
Definitely post some pictures of your dragon & the tank setup, just so we can visually see it all.
I'm glad to hear that you are using the Reptisun 10 T5 tube bulb, a 10 or so distance from him.
Which medication did the vet give for the parasites? I am figuring he was treated for coccidia?
Did you give any probiotics for him to help with appetite?
