Hi there just wondering if anyone can help I have a baby red foot he’s about 7 months. He lives in a vivarium with a day temperature of 30 c and a night temp of 28 c. He has coco coir substrate hides bathing pools plants the lot. But when it comes to food he’s not very excited. I’ve had him for 3 weeks and have tried lots out I have have him small bits of fruit lots of leafy greens and I serving of protein. He’s quite active some days and not others he sleeps/hides for About 22 hours a day and Is active for the other 2 round my room or bathing every other day. Just wondering if anyone knows how to get him eating again please help!!!?

My first clutch of yellowfoot babies wouldn't eat either. I finally found that coating chopped up greens with Gerber strained fruit was something they'd eat.
