Hi everyone,
My name is Della and we own a gorgeous baby beardie called Berti he is approximately 18 weeks old and when we first got him he loved chasing and eating his crickets. Now however and for about 4 weeks he has been off his food, we get the odd mealworm or baby cricket down him at a push but he's really not interested. He is pooping as normal is bright eyed, happy to be handled and run around and he scratches alot at the corner of the viv. We have been advised of possible constipation so give him short periods of time in shallow warm water weekly. We have been advised he may be fussy and have a sweet tooth and to try strawberries but he is not interested. We are keeping a very close eye on his temperature and behaviour and from what we can see it is all normal. Any advice please guys? We would really appreciate it.
