Anyone ever put their beardies on a diet? My girl Phoenix is a major pudge, and the vet is worried about her health, because of it. She suggested only feeding her every other day,(salads/veg), and live food like once a week. Does this sound okay to you?
We decided to give it a try for 2 weeks, and now Phoenix won't touch her salad. She is about 14mths old and has been gradually eating more greens than live food, but now she seems to only want to hold out for her supers I'm at a loss.
Any suggestions on how to help your dragon get to a healthier weight, without hurting them in the process? Should we withhold supers until she starts eating her greens again? I feel like we've started over with her as a baby again The only thing I can get her to eat that isn't alive, is Butternut squash. She won't touch collards, turnip, dandilion greens...anything she used to love! I bet she's trying to make me crazy so I break down and give her the worms :roll: Brat!
