Me too. We have a heck of a time trying to get our beardie to eat his veggies. Sometimes my husband can slip a leaf in his mouth while he's busy chewing on a cricket, and once in a while he'll actually eat it. Otherwise, he seems to think he's supposed to be a strict insectivore.
I once brought him home from the vet early in the morning, and I hadn't had time to put his daily salad in his terrarium. He went over and stood in the corner where the salad dish was supposed to be and gave me "The Look". So I hurried up and got him a salad, and he took a look at it (didn't touch it), and then turned around and climbed up his ramp to his basking area, as if to say, "Oh I wasn't going to eat it. I just needed to let you know you hadn't done your job." :roll:
I haven't tried one of those jiggle bowls. I've heard that some bearded dragons are afraid of them. But I've noted that ours does tend to go after anything that's moving, so I suppose it might be worth a try.
It's going to be interesting to see what the rest of you come up with -- maybe some other tricks that I haven't thought off.
I've also wondered if the conventional wisdom may be a little off about adult bearded dragons needing to get 80% of their nutrition from vegetable sources, and if it could be that since they're omnivores, maybe they can manage to be reasonably healthy on a wide range of different diets, just like humans. Some people do fine on vegetarian diets, but on the other hand, the traditional Alaska Native subsistence diet, which is about 95% meat and/or fish, seems to also be very healthy for them. Maybe the same thing is true for bearded dragons -- maybe they're adapted to live on whatever is available (or in the case of our "spoiled" pets, whatever they like and whatever they can get their human slaves to provide for them) :wink:
