so i’ve had my bearded dragon for a couple days and he doesnt want to eat his greens. I think he’s hungry but he just really doesnt eat them. He eats some insects but that’s it. Instead of eating he climbs the walls and scratches the glass. His tank is a 120cm Length 60cm With and 60cm Depth so it should be big enough. Any tips or somebody thats knows how to help.

Your tank is 120 gallon tank ? How old is the dragon please? Hes going thru relocation stress so that is going to effect the eating -- the climbing of the tank and scratching could be part of that but we need to go over the lighting in the tank please - what are you surface basking temps? they should be 95-100 F taken w/ a digital probe thermometer - and your UVB what are you using a coil or a long tube fixture and does the fixture have a reflector on it for a long tube ? These are extremely important - they control the overall health and behavior of the dragon- w/ the eating we can work on that but lets first get the lighting and temps ruled out for cause of the scratching etc

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
