Question
My baby bearded dragon has not eaten for a few days no matter what I try to feed it and spends most of its time laying around sleeping. Any ideas on what to do?

Answer
Hello Tyler,

How long have you had your baby bearded dragon?
What type & brand of UVB light are you using?  Is it a flourescent tube light or a compact or coil light?  What type of basking light are you using, is it a bright white light or a colored light?
What type of substrate are you using?  Sand, shelf liner, carpet?
What are the temps in the tank, & what type of thermometer are you using?
What do you feed him?
Do you supplement calcium 5 times per week?
