Hi there! My ds has had his beardie for about 5 months. So far he's been super healthy and eating tons of salad greens and crickets (no fruit or other veggies - he is very particular - will only eat the gourmet salad blend that i keep in the fridge for myself!). Recently, I was worried that he wasn't getting enough calcium (I feed calcium gel to the crickets), so I sprinkled the calcium on his greens. He flat out refused to eat them and now won't touch his greens even without the calcium. He did recently go through a long shedding process. I had his poop tested and he's free of parasites. The only other change is that we switched from the reptile carpet to a calcium sand (we did that because he was super stinky - daily baths and a good shed seems to have helped with that). He is still eating crickets and pooping every day. His cage has been set up according to the advice on here (he has the really good uv light that was suggested here - reptisun 10 I think). Should we be worried, or is he just having a fussy couple of weeks? Also - any suggestions on giving him calcium?
