Hello! I've had Ike for about 2 months and he's always been very uninterested in his salad. He's about 4/5 months old now. I've been trying to get him to start eating some but he hardly does. He'll take a bite here and there and that is about it. I've tried mixing his worms into it. I've also tried just giving him the salad before his worms. Nothing's worked so far. Any suggestions?
At that age I wouldn't worry about it too much. They still prefer bugs to salad when they're growing because they need lots of protein to support growth spurts. Just keep making it available so it's a familiar food source. As his growth slows at around 12-18 months he will eat (need) less and should start moving to more salad and fewer bugs (he will still want bugs though). I've found that if salad is familiar to them it makes the transition a bit easier. The leftover salads can go to a bug colony to eat.
