Mushu my almost 5-month-old bearded dragon is not eating veggies at all! I've tried every trick in the book. worms in the salad. putting the salad on paper towels then placing him on it. Nothing is working! he hates veggies! I even try to stick a veggie in his mouth as he is chewing his bugs! he basically refuses to stick it in his mouth! I really am stuck and am nervous about his health with the lack of veggies! Someone, please help me. Mushu is a really picky beardie. He is not a pig at all when it comes to bugs either!! Please if anyone knows what to do I would love to know! I really need help!

I got back to you via messenger but since he is still young I'd keep focusing on the bugs if thats what he prefers. Keep salads available so they are familiar but he may not get into them until he is fully grown and that's not unusual. Just offer a variety of bugs and keep his salads available. You can feed the leftovers to the bugs (especially roaches) so he'll wind up getting some of the benefits anyway.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
