Beardie Not eating much!!!! Need reasons why?

Does venus ever eat any crickets or worms? Or do you have to feed her baby food and turkey or some other protein like that?

hello
no babyfood for venus, she has learmed to trust me and takes phoenix, butter and wax worms from the tongs, purely because i dont like touching the worms myself, otherwise i think she would take from my hand, but the worms being in the tongs means they dont wiggle too much. but if i end up dropping them she will freak out and run off so have to approach her again slowly with the worm and then she will end up having her eyes closed shut i normally then just pet her say its ok its just a worm she opens her eyes sees the worm and thinks "yummy" and eat it, lol. such fun feeding her.
