So, I went out and got myself another bearded dragon. This one is a small one not a hatchling, but not that large either. Anyway, the first day he came home he ate a few crickets. But since then I couldn't get him to eat anymore, or at least not a lot of it in front of me or behind my back. I've only had him for about 3, 4 days. I think he is still acclimating to the new cage. He is very skittish and would hide as soon as I walk into the room. Should I keep offering food even though he doesn't want to eat them, or should I leave him be and let him get use to his new home first before I start doing anything with him? So far he has only eaten a few crickets, so he's been eating but just not in front of me and not a lot of it (maybe 5 or 6 crickets) like a bearded dragon should. Should I be worried? My other one ate fine right after I got her, but she is not skittish like this one. This one will puff up and bite me if I tried to pick it up and would hide if he sees me looking at him. He seems to be alert and healthy.
