Today I did my first experiment. I got the box out, put the dragon inside (the little one first), placed it on one end, with the mealworm on the other. As I lifted the pieces of card board up, the mealworm was moving very much, but surprisingly the bearded dragon did nothing. It hardly moved. After five minutes, the mealworm was moving very close to the dragon. Still, nothing happened. I then removed the dragon, put it back in its cage, and placed the larger one inside the cardboard box. So after I placed it inside, put the meal worm on the opposite end, I lifted both sides up at once. Also, even with the larger one, hardly moved. Several minutes later the dragon looked squarely at the moving mealworm, but still didn't make a move for it. Soon, the mealworm moved away and the dragon did nothing about it. After 3 more minutes of nothing happening (besides the mealworm trying to escape the cardboard box!), I removed the dragon and put it back in its cage. My reasoning for the mealworms not being very active is the cold weather; Doctor Petosky said that from what he has observed, that they are very inactive and eat very little (if any) on cold weather. The weather had a low of 46 degrees Fahrenheit and a high of 70 degrees Fahrenheit. -Jack Kane
