slightly lethargic and possibly sick of dubias

My almost 2-year-old beardie is not eating her dubias. I feed her 3 times a week and for the past week or two, she has only been eating a couple dubias if any at all. the dubias are medium size, around 1/2 of an inch. She has enthusiastically eaten the "big ones" but I don't want to kill the colony and only feed her those. I don't know if she is just sick of the roaches or the calcium powder or what. she is slowly losing weight but maintains her energy when out of her enclosure for free time. What should I do?

Sometimes they go through phases like that. At 2 years old I wouldn't worry about it a whole lot, especially if she's eating some veges too. You could try ordering a small batch of something else like hornworms or silkworms and see if that gets her interest.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
