Hi
I need help. My 2& a half week old red phase beardie has only eaten 2 or 3 pieces of mustard greens or dandilion greens or may be a piece of grated carrot from my finger for the 2 days I have had her in her enclosure(pics attached here somewhere)some people are telling me not to worry but she is so small I am worried that she will burn up the small fat reserves she has. She has been offered calcium dusted weaner (smaller than small but bigger than pinhead) crickets, but they can crawl on her head and she just does not react. Should i try something new or should I just persist, because some web sites tell you not to worry for a week if they are not eating real well. She has pooped, so impaction is not an issue.
