Feeding Greens Help

[applejacks155]

Ok so my beardie is now 2 months and 9 inches but he has never been interested in green. Is there a way I can get him to start liking them? Even if I offer it to him daily he wont eat it.

Sadly no, all of my dragons completely ignored their greens, then one day just woke up and started eating them like a mad man. Some of them it took a month, some took 3 months, but none of them ate them when I first brougth them home. Just keep offering them, he'll come around.

He's rather young to be eating much greens yet. Just keep offering some and eventually he'll start eating them. At his age, they seem to need a lot of protein. I think right now beardie knows best...lol.

If you really wanna try to get him to eat some greens, try wiggling them on your finger with a sprinkle of water! Sometimes the movement and light off the water will attract their attention. Don't forget though that when he does start eating greens, as a baby/juvenile, he's still gonna need lots of crickets!

I used silkworms to get Chaos to start eating greens. They produce a little bit of silk and it get all tangled in with the greens. So if he wanted the worm he had no choice but to eat the greens that were tangled in! I just put the silks ontop of the greens and waited a few minutes before giving it to Chaos. You can get them at mulberryfarms.com I buy all my feeders there, they are great!

Hi
mine was also really picky until I figured out what he likes
he loves dandelion leaves and heads
(which is handy because my garden seems to love growing them)
just try different things and youll find something he likes
