Hey all a month or so ago I posted to this forum looking for help on a baby beardie that I had gotten that seemed to be going through some intense relocation stress.
You can find that post here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=210240
You can also find information on his cage setup there for those curious.
Since that post his behavior seems much better, he's not too jumpy when I hold him and does not always seem so skidish, he is still kinda skidish but not as much.
Since then I must say he has not grown. If he has it can't be more than an inch or so. He has not gone through another Shed (though it looks like he may start one soon from the shade of his skin...). He is 4 months old now and cannot be more than 8 or 9 inchs at MOST.
He eats about 400 calciworms (soldier fly larvae, phoenix worms, w.e. you'd like to call them) every 2 weeks now, and he eats everyday. He still does not dive for his food except for in the morning if he is feeling really hungry. He poops everyday and overall looks like he is in good shape.
Except for the fact he is at this point, compared to other dragons I have had, he is very undersized I would say.
Not sure if there is anything I can do at this point to encourage his growth. Any help would be appreciated thanks guys.
