Yes! He loves his salad!
Menu today: kale, dandelion, zucchini, bell pepper, shredded sweet potato.
YUM (of course he has to eyeball it first to be sure it's up to snuff!)

What's your buddy having today?

UPDATE 1/6/20-Decided to make this Petey's ongoing thread rather than starting new posts.

Shedding sideburns, very nice. Devlyn also will shed just the lips at one point. It is so neat how dragons shed in sections and each dragon has their own way they do their shedding. I wonder if they have control over what sheds and when. That would be neat, but there is no evidence for that, I just like to imagine it's a fashion choice for which scales fall off ?
This is a first for us. He hasn't shed any in the 6 months I've had him. Will give him a warm soak tomorrow. ?
I have seen some pics that left me in tears I laughed so hard! Lol! ? Youngsters have a heck of a time with the shedding. Brandon has some hysterical pics of his shedding Beardies. ?

Maybe.. but I don't have sideburn shedding pics! I want pics! LOL

Lol dang phone just takes lousy pics. You know the spikes under/behind their ears? Right at the spot where the mouth ends? That's what I'm calling sideburns. ? I had to look close but I can see they are shedding. Especially on his left side. Hoping he won't fight too bad and get a decent soak tomorrow. ? I'll try to get pics tomorrow, he's asleep now. ?

Really hard to see, but the spikes are showing loose shed near his face and lips. ? Its the base of the large spikes.

Petey got some different stuff for salad today, added okra and Apple bits to his collards, cilantro and yellow bell pepper. He doesn't seem to be interested yet. We'll see if he eats any of it. Hope so. He needs to eat what I have. Of course with the bit of shedding he might not be interested but may like it at another time. I almost always try things more than once. Except for pineapple! Lol! He refused an entire salad of his fave stuff because I put some pineapple on it. Lol! ?

Petey is super pretty! I love the orange/white scheme he's got going on.

I like thinking they have their own movie scenes going in their heads at all times. :D
It's fun to anthropomorphize their weird little behaviors!

Lol! Don't I know it! I 'talk' for Petey all the time. ? Not a big deal, I also have complete conversations with the cats. ? LOL!

Yes Dee, this is why they sleep on your face and you kink your neck.. LOL

Lmao! Actually it was a first. DJ was wrapped around my head like ear muffs. ? Crazy cat. No clue what possessed him to be up on my pillow wrapped around my head. SMH
I must have been sleeping really well for me not to wake when he got up there. ?
Loved all the new pics of your crew. ❤

Yeah he really doesn't like the water but found a chunk of shed and thought a nice warm soak would help. ?

Petey was doing his IHOP impression, all pancaked out! ?
I didn't notice the cat until after I posted the pic. Lol! They were curious cause he kept trying to jump out.
Got up this morning and he's under the newspaper. ? Nope. Not doing that. Get under the heat. ? Only time he does that is when he wants to brumate. Did that about 3 months ago.

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.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
