first time poster here
So just got my first bearded dragon, from head to the tip of the tail he is about 8 inches long. i have had him for about 5 days now, and he doesnt seem to want to eat his greens at all, feeding him the same ones he was getting at the place i got him. now he has eaten crickets a few times, but he doesnt seem to be as hungry as he should be from what im reading, and other times, like today, he wouldnt really eat any crickets, maybe like 4 1/4". now i have changed his tank up a few times since i got him trying to get it right, do you think he might be stressed out since ive been changing hes bedding from paper towels to cardboard then to tiles? so maybe its just stress and i need to just let him chill and see what happens? some advice would be wonderful
40 gal tank, use a 150 wattage basking bulb, keeps the basking area between 100-110 ish, has a water dish/greens dish and a basking log/branch over a hide. use a 18" zilla desert 50 series t8 uvb bulb, which i think is the same as the 10.0 uvb outputs.
any clues? thanks
oh and also, i keep to the 14 hour rule for daylight, but i dont run it at normal hours because of work, usually lights on at 10am and off around midnight.
