Beardie hates fruit??

When I see all of you guys talk about favorite stuff to feed beardies who won't eat, I see people saying they'll make a slurry with favorites like strawberries, raspberries, etc. Chester won't eat any fruits at all, and I've been offering them since I got him as a hatchling in July. I've tried almost everything that isn't on the no-no list, he won't even touch the rest of his salad if there's fruit on it. Is this normal?

Are you offering too big of pieces maybe? Or maybe try something like a little bit of all natural apple sauce. Any beardie I've ever came in contact with loved fruit once they were shown what it was. You could try hand feeding a small piece of something sweet, that may catch his interest as well.

None of my dragons have really liked fruit. One would eat raspberries once in awhile but that was it. I never have worried about them not eating fruit, its only good for treats due to the high sugar content so its not a big deal if the won't eat any.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
