I realize that so many beardie owners are worried because their little one's will not eat, but my concern is quite the opposite.
Loki has never been one to eat her greens. She always gets a salad every morning, but usually she just picks at it.
Now, however, for the past couple months, she is ravenous! She is waiting for me every morning standing in the corner where her food bowl goes. Her enclosure is in a hallway between the living room and the kitchen, and every time I walk past, she looks at my hands to see if I have food. I feed her two large supers a day along with about a cup of shredded greens.... usually either collard or mustard greens.
Almost every day I let her out on the patio and even after eating all this food she still goes through the grass and eats all the clover then attacks my begonia and Nasturiums. She would probably eat until she pops! :shock:
I'm only concerned because she's never behaved like this before. Am I under-feeding her at her age? She will be 6 in November. Could she be preparing for brumation?
