Hi:
I recently moved from the CA coast to Davis, CA, where it is much warmer. I set my horned lizards up outside. Their enclosures are in partial sunlight for most of the day, and never full sun. I have always fed them ants and crickets, but they are suddenly refusing both. I caught them a few thousand termites (which in my experience is another Phrynosoma favorite); they ate those once, and are now refusing them as well. I am worried they are losing weight, and they are noticeably lethargic. Any ideas on setting up outdoor enclosures would be greatly appreciated (I have seen the pics on Phrynosoma.org). I use Vision tubs, and have no more than three lizards in each cage (including cages with juveniles). As far as temps go, it has been in the mid-80s to low 90s for the past couple weeks. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
