Refuses to eat veggies

[Remysbiggestfan]

Remy is 9ish months old and literally refuses to eat vegetables. I sometimes even hide worms in a bowl of greens and he will sit and wait by the bowl for the worms to come out. Is this normal? He ate more veggies as a baby!

You can try just giving him salad. He'll eat the salad long before he starves, though beardies are often reluctant at first.

If he is under 12 months old , PLEASE DON"T HOLD BACK his live insects , he is only a juvenile and NEEDS TWO meals of live insects per day , if he eats his veggies at this age IT"S A BONUS but NOT NECESSARY as he needs the live insect proteins and fats to grow and develop properly.

Please don't stress over his refusal to eat his veggies ATM , keep on offering them fresh and daily , and KEEP OFFERING him his TWO feeds of live insects for per day , cutting back to ONE meal of live insects in 3 - 6 months from now.

The veggies he ignores can be used to gut load the insects (crickets / roaches / locusts) so he will get the veggies in disguise via the insects.
