Hey guys, Im new to the site and kind of a novice when it comes to owning bearded dragons. I recently got a 2 1/2 month old dragon from morph market. It shipped from CA to WA state. He is 100% alert and healthy looking and drinks water when I offer it through a syringe or spray but I have had him now for about 5 days and he wont eat anything. I have been offereing him baby arugula for his greens and I have tried baby dubia roaches as well as baby crickets.
Im wondering if he is still getting acclimated to his new enclosure OR if the enclosure set up is incorrect. I have attached pics of the set-up along with the UVB bulb I am using.
I have a temp gun and a temp guage in the tank. His hot spot is 105 -110 and his cool area is around 78 - 82 during the day. At night the cool area drops to around 74 and the warm area stays around 80 (uth).
I may be over reacting but I just want to make sure that everything is good for this little guy and that im providing the best enclosure I can.
Is there any advice you guys can give me to get him eating? Or do I just have to wait a bit longer for him to get settled in?
Any info is appreciated!
