Right so pretty much every time I get Mushu out just after 5 minutes he goes on his little mission to find a place to sleep should I be concerned about this because he has been acting lazy and off his greens lately (like he's barely touching them).
My beardie used to do this. When she was out exploring the living room, she'd find a corner and dark place and just curl up and sleep. I don't think it's anything to be concerned about, How old is he?
well at that age its normal for them to be lazier, mines 15 months and very lazy! Not sure why he's off his grrens (mine doesn't eat them and i've been trying the tough love approach of cutting out feeders till she eats them with no luck.) Could be that he's bored of the same greens and a change might help. They like a variety and get bored of the same feeders, try changing his food, might help.
you could try superworms, dubia roaches, reptiworms, locusts, butterworms. My beardie went off crickets at about 11 months old- she loves superworms and locusts at the minute. As for the salad, try mixing the occasional red or yellow pepper in so the colour might attract, carrot, fruit, squash etc.
Thanks, quick question though can Superworms be fed as a staple?
And is it possible for us UK folk to get some silkworms?
(sorry for the bombardment of questions)

No worries. Superworms (morio worms) can be fed as a staple but they're quite fatty. I usually give a mix of morio worms and locusts. You can get silkworms from http://www.butterworms.co.uk/7-silkworms- they're out of stock at the moment but you can keep checking. Ebay sells them too: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280703107795 My beardie didn't like the silkworms . The butterworms.co.uk site also sells butterwoms (hence the name lol)- my beardie goes mad for them and they're very nutritious
