BD wont eat

[forzaroma]

Have had my BD about 5/6 weeks now , think he is about 17 weeks old. At first(maybe first 3/4 weeks)he was eating loads, but now he is only eating about 5/10 crickets a day and maybe some apple and carrot. Im getting a bit worried, the basking spot is about 110 think the enclosure is big enough. But I had to go away for a week and my brother said he fed him a type of worm(think he means mealworm) could this be the problem??

No one meal worm would not be a problem, but i would not suggest feeding her them as the are high in chitin which is hard for lizards to digest. But inorder for my to figure out what is wrong can you please answer these basic questions. (the first thing i noticed though is you said you are feeding her carrots and apple, these should only be given as treats they should be eating collard greens, green beans, turnip greens, mustard greens, or yellow squash. You can find all of these at your local super market, in the frozen veggie section on in the fresh produce section.)
