He is only eating about 2 mealies a day. They are dusted and active (rolling around ect.) Is this enough mealies for a baby too be eating?

Unless he's losing weight or is already really skinny I wouldn't worry. Sometimes their appetite has ups and downs. Have you tried crickets?? Also are you sure he doesn't eat at night while you aren't watching him, or are you counting the meallies before you go to bed and when you wake up?? Make sure the temps are right. Sometimes they won't eat when it's a little too cold/warm. Hope he starts eating soon!!
