Bearded dragon not eating

Question
Have had the dragon fo 4 days. It is still very active and alert but has eaten only one cricket and nothing else. Have tried taking things out of cage, a bath and a few other suggestions from pet store. The crickets walk right over him and he is not at all interested. What can I do???

Answer
Hello, usually when you first get a bearded dragon they may not eat right away. The stress of being moved can set a good toll on them. Give him just a while longer so your bearded dragon can get use to the new move. If he doesn't start eating I would advise a vet visit.
