Alright so I've looked through a couple of threads here but they don't really seem to answer my questions, please help!
I purchased a bearded dragon on Sunday (2 days ago) and have since moved him into his tank. He seems to be adjusting well but doesn't have that big of an appetite. His tank at PETCO, where I got him, only had mealworms in a food dish although they assured me that they fed them crickets as well. Although I did not see him eat the crickets, they all disappear whenever I leave the room but he won't touch the mealworms. I only offered a few, since I read that they are a ltitle fatty. But he won't eat them at all! I assumed he did since they were out at the pet store but he doesn't. I've been researching different things to feed him and am a little confused.
Is it okay to feed him yogurt? (It sounds weird to me but I've seen it on different sites)
Cucumbers?
Cantelope? (I've read that melon is good and they are partial to orange)
Pineapple?
Snow Peas/Snap Peas?
Green Beans? (Cooked or uncooked??)
I would guess he is about 2 months old, he is about 6 1/2" long snout to tail. I say he but I don't really know. He has bright orange along his back and almost a snow-leopard pattern on his stomach. Don't know if that helps, but thought I would put it. Thanks for any help!
