I've had my dragon since April, and he's always been a voracious eater. Salads, crickets, roaches, worms, whatever I offer, he'll eat it. However, since about mid-November, he has refused to eat anything but superworms. At first he was eating his salad as well but lately he doesn't even want that. I keep trying to give him roaches as well (I'm breeding them, he needs to start eating them or I'll get overrun!) but he usually will ignore them. He might eat one or two a day, or every other day. I want to say that this could be because it's winter, but I think he would eat a million superworms if I let him. Problem is, he has trouble digesting superworms so I can only give him 6-7 at a time, otherwise they come out the other end still partly intact.
Any advice on how to get him to eat roaches?
(Just so everyone knows, I'm using a reptisun 10 which I just replaced in October, his basking spot is about 100 degrees, he's 21" long and about 9 months old.)
