Thank you for your reply. It is weird I posted something similar with no replies, but you got one like 4 minutes later lol. Oh well. Hope you don't mind me bouncing ideas off you.
My concern came from watching YouTube videos yesterday morning. It occurred to me I have never seen beardies eat certain things. The videos I saw beadies younger than mine run right up to a plate and start eating collards, apple bits, and squash. In another they chase and demolish crickets. The one thing I did notice is in all of them there are 2-3 beardies in the same tank, which I thought was a no-no. I wonder if they hunt better with pals when they are young?
I was ok with him eating slowly until the last week when he has turned down the reptiworms. Before he at least ate them once a day, even if it was only 4-6.
I have tried feeding in a separate container, I've tried wounding them, and I've tried letting them run around his viv and then recollecting them. No luck. He only eats out of a "mealworm dish" which I got at the local store that has a curved rim to prevent escape (no meal worms fed of course).
