Thanks for that. They are from the same clutch of eggs, and hatched the first week in dec, so would be about 4 months old now. He stopped eating alot when his sibling started getting a little bigger (which was why I moved the smaller one, thinking his sibling might be picking on him, even though he always had the best basking spot and seemed to be the boss) He is currently in a 2ft tank while the other enclosure is being built. Normal tank temp is about 30ish during the day, down to about 25 during the night with his basking spot about 35. As for the type of UV, it is a long globe that is one of the special reptile ones (which I cant remember the name of) and he is quite close to it (within about 10cm) He also gets sunlight daily. I know its not ideal to have him in such a small tank without temp variances, but I wasnt going to buy a full set up for the 2 weeks while the other one was being made.
uummm, he gets offered veggies a few times a week, has a choice of woodies or crickets at feeding time (8am and 5pm) his furniture is newspaper and branches and he is handled a few times a day for feeding (is taken out for feeding), but seems to love attention, whenever I walk into the room, he starts running up and down and as soon as I remove the lid he clambers up onto my hand. Will happily eat mashed up beardie pellets as long as he is sitting on my hand to do it.
Hopefully new enclosure should be finished this week (auzlizardkind if you're reading this, hows it going) so he will be moving back to a suitable home very shortly.

Cheers
