Any suggestions on how to get my beardy's greens to stay fresh throughout the day?
I placed the greens in at 6am on Sunday. By 9am they looked like shrinky dinks, all curled up and dried out. They were cut fresh and placed in his food dish. I sprayed them with water so they would have some "dew" on them.
The temperatures are:
basking: 109F
cool end: 82F
humidity: 51%
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Mist the food dish before you put the greens in it.Or even put a few drops of water on the bottom of the dish and then the misted greens on top. Keep an eye on the humidity though .
My beardie actually likes his greens crunchy. I don't know why, but he'll avoid them while they're fresh and he'll wait to eat them until around lunch time when they're crispy. The only exception is when I put butternut squash in the morning, he goes nuts for butternut squash.
