I've been trying to figure out how to get Alduîn, our young bearded dragon with MBD and significant mobility challenges, to eat some veggies throughout the day. Occasionally he'll eat a few mouthfuls of finely diced (almost minced) butternut squash if handfed, but usually he just ignores veggies altogether. He is quite young -- probably 4 months old or younger -- but I know it's possible to turn them on to veggies early.
(I'd love to try the "withhold insects until he eats some salad" approach to feeding, but because of his health issues, I use the insects to deliver his medications.)
Anyway, one part of the equation I'm unsure about is how finely to chop the veggies. Here is how I prepared some butternut squash and turnip greens today:
Relative size comparison:
Are these too fine? too coarse? just right?
With thanks,
