    Refuses Everything Except Superworms (Veggie help)

    Ah jeez, today for the first time ever I noticed my dragons side was twitching a little bit, just a very small spot but enough to see / feel and I know that has to do with lack of dusting since he wont eat anything I offer. Should I just dust the hell out of superworms just to get him some...

    Ok that website is a life saver thank you :D . Also thanks for showing me the cactus, I think I'm gonna buy a paddle soon and if he likes them I can easily buy a few more and start growing them! (we own a lot of cactus already so whats one more)

    I do not have the website. Are you referring to the big green parts when you say pads? (i know nothing of cactus or the names of the parts) or the fruit? either way I may try this, the more things I can order online and not have to go to walmart for the better.

    Ok I tried cancelling / refunding the superworms as they are still pending so hopefully that works and I'll get mealworms, our leopard gecko will thank me as well. Ill definitely order horn worms after this heat wave is over / cooler out unless they can survive high heat. and sorry to hear about...

    He loves mealworms and superworms, I just thought both were about just as bad of a staple. He's never had horn worms because at first he was too small but now I just havn't gotten around to buying any since they are kinda expensive and more of a treat in my eyes. I will definitely get some next...

    Ok I will try that. How long should I only offer him roaches if he continues to refuse salad and insects?

    Thanks again. The UVB is a t5 I believe. have a whole colony of discoid roaches of all sizes that I have been growing since I got him and they were supposed to be the end all be all of staples for him but then he found worms one day and refuses to even acknowledge them now. I will try the salad...

    Thanks. His UVB is on the top of his tank with a metal screen. The holes are probably big enough for an avg sized meal worm to crawl through if that helps at all. Its around that range id say around 9 inches give or take an inch. His basking spot is 98-107 depending on where he sits as his new...

    Also just ordered nutrigrubs. The salad mixed with bugs trick does not work as he either ignores bugs blocked by salad or eats around the salad. He is truly a picky eater.

    I just know he needs a varied diet, and vegetables. I don't feel comfortable waiting longer than a month for him to eat something other than superworms. Because of covid and everything I have yet to be able to try and feed him bakchoi, turnip greens, or dandelion greens because of stock /...

    I know it has been a very long time with no response... Anyway that syringe is pretty much the last thing hes eaten since then. I use a 22 inch UVB 10.0 and I have a new enclosure for him, 2x2x4 which he loves. I offer him salad daily still, I now have tried collard greens and blueberries. He...

    He used to eat greens pretty normally but over the last 2-3 months hes been eating less and less of them and the last month has not touched them at all. The only thing he ate was a few pineapple slices and a raspberry. But again he did eat from the syringe pretty well, I just don't want to have...

    I did just get him to eat a blend of blueberries, strawberries, and arugula through a syringe, i know you arent supposed to syringe feed unless its a last ditch effort but our store was out of all the greens we normally feed him somehow and as its been so long i didnt want to wait another week...

    Eating but not basking?

    I'm going to fix the UVB distance as you mentioned in a little bit, while I was waiting for a reply I placed a fan blowing into his tank and with in 3 minutes he was basking for the first time in a while, is there any reason not to use the fan that im missing or is this going to be his new...

    Eating but not basking?

    For the last 2-3 weeks my beardie has been acting very strange. He is around a year old and has almost stopped basking entirely. He will eat, some days a lot and some days not so much but after eating instead of basking like they would normally do he either goes to the opposite end of the tank...

    Lighting help for new tank!

    I'm sure there are a lot of posts like this, so please forgive me. I am getting a new enclosure finally for my beardie really soon: https://www.zenhabitats.com/products/zen-habitat-w-wood-panels?variant=12514948710484 and while I'm excited, I have no idea how strong of a heat lamp I need, how...

    Stuck Scale?

    Ok, will do. If the picture doesn't portray it good enough, the scale is grey and kinda crusty (like its half shed or something) and down the middle of it there's a raised black line. The scale also seems to be bigger than the ones around it, almost like its two scales in one, or maybe two...

    Stuck Scale?

    My bad, there is only the blurry picture there, here’s the higher quality one. While I do not think it’s any of those things I’ll still definitely try it in the morning, thanks for the tip! https://imgur.com/YvTSu06
