How old is Darwin (great name BTW)? My little girl didn't start eating her greens until the last week or more.. Before that, she ate a parsley leaf and a few tiny bites of veggies by accident. She is about 3 months or so now.. She doesn't eat a lot of them, but I'm glad she is eating them, even a little bit!
he is about 5 months old healthy and eats tones of crix. He has been shedding for the past week or so but i have had him for probably 3 months and he has never ate all of the greens that i give him. The only thing i can think of is that he doesn't want to eat it all because i ust give him one kind of vegtable, for instance i just put a bunch of spaghetti squash in there.

He's still very young. As adults, they eat a lot more veggies, about 80% of their diet. As juvie's, it's only about 20-50%.
You can try mixing it up, but it's not cost effective for us, right now, to furnish our little girl with different veggies.. we just feed collard greens.. .99¢ a bunch here.
I wouldn't worry too much, if he is eating some. You may stumble upon something that he really likes, though.. some can be very picky eaters!
