get that basking temp up to at least 105, make sure he stays well hydrated, misting him a few times a day is a good idea at that age. One day without eating isnt too much to worry about, give him another day and see how he does, getting his basking temp up will probably make a difference in his appetite.


>>I got my baby dragon 5 days ago. Its about 3 weeks old. It seems to be eating veggies ok, crickets are a little different. I fed it crickets the first time yesterday. I dropped 5 in and it gobbled them up within about 10 minutes. It went right after them as soon as they were dropped in. Today I dropped a couple in and nothing. It just sat there watching them. It never ate one. Is this something to worry about since I've heard and read how much they like to eat.
>>I've just adjusted my basking temp up to 100 from 95 today so I don't know that has anything to do with it.
>>I have a UVB light, veggies get dusted, cool side varies from 79-82.
>>Or am I just worrying for nothing?
