Being in the water isn’t a bad thing,check his humidity to make sure it is proper. Quote: 2. i fed him crickets and add milworms in aswell but im not sure if he ate anything? i seen within the last 2 days new freesh pops so maybe he has ate?
Crickets are great make sure they are dusted try switching him from mealies to supers. If he is pooping chances are he is eating. My aussie won’t eat infront of me. Quote: 3. he knocked down the feeding tray not mealworms are under the bark and he has some crickets in there that he hasnt ate should i take thme out or leave it?
I have a little container in my viv for the crickets always stocked with food so they don’t bother my aussie, if you find the crickets climbing on your dragon they are probably stressing your dragon out and should be removed. Quote: 4.he i think is about 6 - 9 months of age about 12 inchs mostly tail, and when i hold him he still gets wild and wants to run then he will relax and then try to run agian at one point i had him really calm and he was on my legg then just ran off lol quick i might add but when he stopped i walked up and just picked him up no prob,, all i need to do is get him used to me more?
He is scared that is why he relax’s kinda like playing dead but with more handeling he should calm down. Not all do though so please keep in mind that he may always be like that. Quote: 5.i made for him (not in tank yet) which is made out of ply would its like a hut with a later to go on top aswell, will it be ok to just add it the tank sinces in only ply wood or do i need to do anything to it??
You should treat any wood as it will eventually mold, due to the humidity. Hope that helps some!! |
