Should my beardie be eating veggies?

[arpooch]

Hi everyone,

I have a quick question. I have a baby beardie. I got him in December when he was a baby. I've been feeding him crickets and mini (really, really small, about the size of my fingernail) everyday. I've tried feeding him veggies, but he's not interested in them. Is it too early for him to eat veggies? If he doesn't eat veggies yet, is that okay?

Thank you.

he should be eating greens. give him ripped up collards or mustard greens try hiding his crieket in his greens so that he will grab a bit of greens everytime he trys to grab a cricket

just keep offering the greens every day and give a variety. Sometimes as babies they may not eat them and should start once they get older. You could try attracting him to the veg and 'teaching' him to eat them by mixing some live food in with it
