No crickets and can't get him to eat anything else

[BobSaget]

So because of the cold weather nowhere around has crickets and I can't seem to get my beardie to eat anything else. I've tried worms, freeze dried and sun dried foods and this stuff called baby bites that looks like ground beef and smells like red bull, but he doesn't want any of it and i have no way of getting crickets. Any suggestions?

Hello What kinds of worms are you offering? I would keep offering good worms like phoenix, silk, and if he is big enough supers. He will get hungry enough to eat them.

I was giving him Phoenix worms. Those he bites and spits out. I tried giving him wax worms as well. I am aware they are not the greatest but I had them around. Those he doesn't even touch.

If you keep offering food eventually he will get hungry enough to eat something. Try greens as well. My beardies were stuck on supers for a while and when I didnt want to feed them anymore I just let them get hungry enough. They will eat when they get hungry enough
