2 mo. old Normal Beardie - Puff

I have an approx. 2 mo. .old Bearedie named Puff. I was wondering when I should start feeding fruits or vegetables and what kind? Right now he enjoys crickets and Silkworms and soon be adding Phoenix worms.

Hi.
You should be offering veggies now. They do not always take to eating them right away, sometimes it takes a while.
Here is a great list of what is good to feed the beardies. The list is color coded as to what is good and bad.

Jiffy nailed it.

Spike is almost 10 months old and has always been good about eating his veggies, but some dragons take a while to catch on. Follow the list jiffy linked to, cut your veggies up small, put them in a shallow small dish, sprinkle some water on them, and place your dragon in front of them. I feed Spike his veggies in the morning, he has gotten use to the routine and knows that it's time for veggies when he sees me putting the feeding bowl in his viv. He likes collard greens and mustard greens the best but also likes bitter herbs and cactus.

Hope that helps,

Eric
