Hello, i am new to this site, but i have had my dragon for almost 2 years now.
When we (my parents and i) went to see him in his previous home, we witnessed him eating a multitude of vegetables and fruits and we were told that his favourite is rocket.
So when we first brought him to out home, we gave him rocket to help him settle in.
But now all he eats is rocket! On the very odd occasion he will have a piece of something else like melon , spinach, or grape, but then he will refuse to eat anything else.
My question is, is thi very bad for him? And how should i encourage him to eat other vegetables.

I would also like to point out that when i say he only eats rocket, i mean that is the only vegetable he eats. He does eat hoppers and locust and i dust them with vitamins and calcium powder twice a week.

Thank you to any help recieved!

I would just keep trying a variety of greens. If it is mixed well he is bound to accidentally eat some of the others. ;) My dragons have their preferences too and many times eat the greens but not the veggies or fruit.

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!
