well, as you guys know i got my first beardie on tuesday this week, he's a 8 inch long baby
for the first two days he never ate anything, except a little bit of salad leaf, then yesterday we had a break through, he ate 13 phoenix worms in the morning, and when i fed him again later on he ate 3 locust, not a lot i know, but it was SOMETHING.
This morning i offered him phoenix worms again, and he took absolutely no interest, so i tried offering him a cricket, still no interest, he just keeps running along the back wall of his enclosure (i have one of those wooden ones with the sliding glass front)
he has done this since day 1 that i've had him, is it normal? does it mean something?
he tries to climb up the back wall aswell, underneath his uvb bulb, i put a branch there so he could climb up if he wants but he completely ignores it.
He did do a poop just a minute ago though.
This strange behavior, and the fact he doesn't seem to be eating very well is getting me worried, any advice would be great
thanks, chris.
