New Sulcata owner

[kakarot93]

Hello everyone. I recently got a one month hatchling and i love it! I noticed it sleeps a lot and i never see its food go down. I was wondering if they eat a whole lot when they're that young? Any and all suggestions for raising the little guy would be appreciated i.e. Diet, supplementation amounts that sort of thing

Hello and Welcome. Babies do sleep a lot but still should eat too. Give him some time though to get accustomed to his new home. Be sure to soak him every day for 20-30 minutes in warm water, keeping the water warm the whole time. Also, please read Toms threads below in my post for raising and housing a sully to be healthy and smooth.
