I have a 1 month old sulcata that just came home yesterday. How long does it take for a baby to get settled in? It eats when I put a pellet of mazuri out for it, eats about half and then leaves it alone. It doesn't seem real active and wants to sleep a lot when it's inside it's habbitat. When I get home from work I take it outside and let him litterally run around in the back yard for about an hour and then I'll bring him back in. When I put him back in it's habbitat the little guy seems to get bored and goes to sleep in his favorite corner rather than his nice, warm and humid hideout. I have yet to be home during the day to see what his activity is like, but I will for sure this weekend. Is there something that I'm doing wrong or does it just need some time to settle in? Also, how often/much should I be feeding it? I've got all the suppliments for it and tomorrow I'll be going to get it some Pre Pac spring mix.
