Hi there....for insects you can try dubia roaches [ if allowed where you live ] sikworms, hornworms and superworms as treats [ or a small part of his diet ] You can also use Phoenix or calci worms. Those are very small though, so you need a lot more to fill an adult dragon. Be aware that once he starts on worms he may not eat crickets again for a while. Do you offer salads ? The best greens are turnip, mustard, collard, dandelion, escarole, arugula and some squash + fresh chopped green beans.

Yes i do offer him a lot of salad but most days he wont eat it but other days he will eat more. he hasnt had crickets for a while and when i do feed them to him he wont eat any and wont even give them any attention so i think i need to switch up the diet

I would avoid fish. I've heard of eggs being used sparingly. I would stick to bugs and salads and offer the variety in multiple veges on rotation and feeder bugs/worms that are known to be healthy options.

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!
