Getting a bearded dragon to eat greens

[ssprague21]

We are in the process of rehabilitating our bearded dragon. The previous owner only fed him mealworms and he was very malnourished. Thankfully we have been able to get him eating again and he seems much better. He loves crickets but will not eat greens because he has never been offered them before. Does anyone have any tricks to get him to eat some greens? Thanks in advance!

I've done this with other reps before, but if he will eat mealworms or another squirmy food, place a couple mealworms on top of the veges. When he goes for the squirming food, he will get some of the veggies and eventually will start taking them even when they don't move.

Also try different greens and mix in a few chopped up peppers (my Finn loves the yellow and green but won't touch the red). Again adding a few wrigglers to entice him to eat.

inbetween giving him some crickets (by hand for bonding) pop a bit of green leafy stuff in between his lips while munching.
