My adult female beardie is WAY to into worms! I'm currently day 2 of starving her (only offering greens or nothing). Well she still doesn't eat her greens and I'm not giving in cuz she is a little on the over weight side! Not to mention as an adult beardie she needs 70% greens in her diet!
The issue is the same day I stopped feeding her mealworms and only offering salad, she has stopped pooping. It's now been two days and I'm getting worried! I don't want to give in cuz she will continue to act like a brat with her salad, yet on the other hand I would rather her be eating if this is causing her any harm!
I also checked her Temps and levels and everything seems fine there, and she is acting just like her old self, but mind u I have only had her for 3 months, and asking her old owner if there is greens she prefers is impossible! I keep trying to change up greens, she gives it two (trys/smells) and just closes eyes cuz she knows it's not a mealworm.
Do I keep starving her till she gives in and finally eats her greens, or do I say screw it and feed her worms, just not as many and not as often?!
