Forest dragons not eating.

[Djbowker]

Hey all,

I recently got two Boyds Forest Dragons, and they don't seem to be interested in their food.
They have UVB 5, and UVB 1 tube, running water and lots of cover, with decent ambient heat.

I've tried feeding them crickets, and more recently meal worms.

how old are they, what is the enclosure size, have they settled in? (usually takes a week or so), any heatlamp?, enough hides and shelter?

 

[Djbowker]

A few months old.
It's a large enclosure, about four foot.
Been in the for a couple of weeks now.
No headlamp, but there's a large fern they hide under.

Well, this is awkward.
Minutes after posting they exploded into life and starting decimating everything.

Good result mate. They r cunning animals and I think they actually eat when u r out of sight.

One of them started eating, and is still thriving.
The other did what I've learnt is unfortunately common, and didn't.
Expensive Woma food...
