Thank you for allowing me in this forum and I hope to make many friends! My friends get tired of me talking about my babies all the time!
Ok so I am going to say your dragons is a smart one --- little stinker ---- have you tried BSFL-- they are small and he would need to really be strategic on getting them out w/ out salad too --- as far as the coils you need to replace them NOW as of this point they are getting no UVB at all if your using the 13 watt bulb - if its the 26 watt it would need to be 8-10 inches from basking decor in a reflective dome --- so w/ that info I would go from there -- changing out to a 24" fixture w/ reflector and a Reptisun 10.0 T 5 or even the Arcadia D3 12% bulb would be better --- I can give you a website to order from that have a 24" fixture on there that is around $32 -- and the Arcadia bulbs as well - they are good and fast and ship Fed Ex -- let me know -- but going back to the salads and your little dude that wont eat them I would get some BSFL try those order large as they are small and you can feed as many as you want as they are a good staple feeder more so for babies but a good added supplement to adults and you dont need to dust them --- order them from here www.symtonbsf.com you will need a glass or ceramic dish they cant get out of -- I would start adding his roaches to the salad bowl as well w/ the salad in it of course --- I know I come w/ experience w/ the same issue my older one wont eat salads either -- I use silk worms to get him to the bowl as well as horn worms -- he loves horn worms -- my youngest I started him out eating salads first thing in the morning w/ BSFL 1-3 super worms or butter worms -- etc he does eat his salads but not as much as I would like him too -- here is a website for nutrition
