Ok, i really need some advice because im worried shes just a pig and batting those pretty little eyes making me think shes starved.
Basically my dragon is over 2 years old now (time flies) and shes picky about veg, she likes blueberries as a rare little treat and when i mean rare i mean rare because even if i gave them to her everyday she has to be in the mood to eat them (i dont give them to her everyday, once in a blue moon)
She semi eats rocket, someone has suggested spring greens which i believe is the UK version of collard greens so ill try them next.
shes spoilt and doesnt seem to like veg, she'll eat bugs quite a lot and ive tried to down it to 3 times a week because i think shes becoming a little porker. she has her dust etc on the bugs when i feed her.
my concern is though is that she looks like shes getting fat but when i pull a hopper out she literally runs to front of the viv and literally hangs out trying to get it, i cant even put them down to the time people suggest for her to hunt. she has literally eaten a tub of 50 dubias in less then 10 mins, all i could do was sit there and feel horrifed that shes become a eating machine!
Is this normal, is she eating too much? I want to try the worms in the veg to get her to eat but i dont want to use mealworms, im so reluctant to use wax worms cause theyre fatty even if they are gods gift to her, she wasnt a fan of calci worms or silkies(hated keeping silkies) so im a little lost on what to do.
this is her chilling, can try to get a pic of her stand if you guys want
