Question

what should i do, i mean this is my first time , to have one!@

Answer 1

give him some time to adjust to his new home, and feed him alot of veggies and some crickets

Answer 2

Most pets might not eat for a couple days, they need to get used to their habitat. I wouldn't worry about it. And he probably won't eat around you. Check your crickets after a full day, and see how many are left. If some aren't there he ate overnight. Some lizards are picky eaters, you might want to try mealworms, if he's a baby, waxworms every once in a while are ok, but not everyday. Don't look at him when he's eating or supposed to be until he's used to you. If he doesn't start eating in a while, then you can be concerned. Just take it easy for a bit, good luck!

Answer 3
