BABY DRAGON NOT EATING.

shahas Sep 26, 2004 10:35 AM

Recently I've purchased a baby beardie. At first he was eating crickets with no problems at all. Then one day he just stopped eating. After a few days I decided that the only way to get him to eat was to blend up some butter worms. Finally he began eating the blended worms. Should I continue doing this until he/she is okay with eating live food? Thank-you!

PS- He/she is about two months old and 5.5 inches long.

first you need to increase your tempture in the sand under your lamp to 100 degree or close as possible give this little guy 1/4 inch crickets and a nice basking area under his lamp don't feed him to many crickets at one time after 5mins remove all crickets.try this in the morning and evening turn lights on early and off late before bed
