recently i moved my frilled dragon into a 4x2x2 enclosure and since then, for the last month, i haven't actually seen her eat a cricket. i'm pretty sure that the crickets cant get out and they aren't that many left over when i remove them at the end of the night. however, everyday i get her to eat by getting her to show her frill and sticking worms (wax, butter, horned, meal) in her mouth and then she will chew it up so she hasn't lost any weight and is still getting some nutrition and her stool is normal. Any one, that has experience, know why she wont eat in front of me? is it that she is sulking from moving enclosures? she is still active and relatively tame. and both temperatures and humidity are correct.

She also used to drink from my hand/during misting and now rarely drinks during misting and does not drink from my hand. But i don't really want to just assume that she started to drink from her water dish because she never did before.

Any thoughts?
