[QUOTE="Spider8ait1994, post: 2020035, member: 101939"] Sounds a lot like Puff. He’d only recognise live insects as food when I first got him so I had to introduce him to non insect food and teach him what’s edible. His lip deformity actually made that process a bit easier because with his lips open at the front like they were I was able to thinks slice or grate veggies and just poke them in there for him to taste and realise ‘oh? This thing is tasty!?’ I’ve had some success with his learning through showing him videos of other dragons eating greens and he’s definitely learned a few things through watching Spike. Finding greens for Puff is still trial and error but he is improving. I used to have to hand feed him greens but as of September last year he eats peas, corn, green beans and zucchini on his own, he’ll eat pumpkin but needs help with that because it’s steamed and slippery for him and I’ve found he loves the blue cornflowers I grow for them. I’ve got endive, Tuscan Kale and collard greens growing at the moment for them plus the cornflowers and calendula flowers. I’ve also found that my boys seem to prefer home grown versions over store bought so most of their greens I homegrow now which actually saves me money and I have peace of mind that what they’re eating is chemical free and fresh and Spike in particular likes to go and forage for his greens when I have a lizard safe food only garden bed set up.
