baby veiled not eating much

[brownj33]

Hi we have had the the baby since Sat. It ate really good the first few days, but to day all I could get it to eat is a few fruit flies. I have all the right lighting drip system and we mist the cage 3 times a day. Also what is a good basking temp for it.
thanks
Jeff

low to mid 80s is good for a baby when he gets older youll want to increase that to low to mid 90s and he may need some time to adjust to his new home before he starts eating regularly

When you say baby, how old is he? FF's are for very young babies, and i would offer some pinhead crickets even then. but before you do that, let me know how old he is and a picture of him if you can.
