Hey guys figured I would ask I did some research about it.
My female beardie is being syringe fed with critical care (herbivore/carnivore) with baby food. I was wondering if there would be a way to incorporate bugs/veggies/greens in a puree sorta like grinding/mashing it all together. I read someone was using their blender and/or even just chopping veggies and greens in to it for a mix with/without critical care. My thought would be maybe if I can get the taste of veggies greens and bugs maybe down the line she would get a taste and perhaps decide to eat them on her own. As of right now she is just very scarcely eating a bug or greens here and there so the vet decided to continue feeding by syringe
Use a blender and add a pinch of calcium D3 in --- the critical care is really good it provides all the vitamins etc in it along w/ that carnivore is the bugs - is she eating from the syringe ? Have you tried letting her lick off the spoon? You can always add a drop of honey into your veggies -- they like sweet

She wasnt eating and was a bit light so me and my vet decided to do the critical care and shes now at a weight where instead of 3-4 times a day its 1 to 1 1/2 times a day. She licks the mix/paste off her nose but to really feed her I have to do it by syringe she doesnt like it but she gained weight and likes the baby foods I use so she isnt as fussy as she was before about the syringe. I just thought it would be worth a shot to use the blender even if its just to chop her veggies/greens up she likes the sweet potatoe a lot with butternut squash to
