So during the fall/winter my beardie slowed down and was not eating very much... I had to syringe feed him for a bit. Prior to this he would eat veggies and crIckes.
After this he refused to eat crIckets but would eat his veggies.
So I offered him super worms - which he loves.
So now he only eats super worms... And rarely eats veggies.
Are supers the best choice?
Any advice on the veggie situation?
Hi there....that's a common scenario, beardie gets a taste of the supers and refuses everything else. Try holding off on the supers and give him a salad in the middle of the day hoping that he's warmed up + getting hungry. If he enjoyed veggies before, he should go for them again. Try hand feeding and also putting a white paper plate and then dropping the veggies on it to attract his attention. Sometimes those little tricks can work. Only give him super once or twice a week so he does get hungry enough, and then introduce crickets back in his diet. You might shake them up real good in a jar so they move very slowly when dropped in front of him....sometimes the slow moving bugs attract their attention.
