And you base your statement off of....?Im so tired of people withholding insects. It is their main damn meal. If a bearded dragon will not eat salads let them be. This is abuse withholding insects that is their main diet. I agree with the breeder. Bearded dragons are not iguanas. Iguanas will eat salads but a bearded dragon should never eat salads. It is not their main diet.
Salads should only be used if insects are not available.
Hey, sorry if I bother you but today is day 7 with no insects and besides yesterday when my beardy took some salad from my hand after his full body shed, I had no luck today getting him to eat salad.And you base your statement off of....?

Fruit is something that I believe could be perfectly left out of there diet all together if they don't seem to care for it. And no harm should came to them. As it isn't something they should be eating much of anyway.Hi
How do I get my 10 month old bearded dragon to egg fruit he will not touch it tried putting peppers all 3 colors of them strawberries blueberries the lot but he won't eat them. He does eat his greens and roaches everyday. Just wondering how I can get him to eat some fruit? I think he still looks great without eating them but would like him to start
Any help would be really appreciated
Thank you
i can't remember if you said he will take water from a dropper/syringe. but if he will, you could get some liquid calcium and vitamins and give them to him mixed with the water. that way you know he is getting them regardless of what he eats. we had to switch to this method because our guy refuses to eat anything with the powders on it.I am getting concerned because he does not get any calcium and vitamins...
I feel you, I hade the same thoughts but today he ate some salad on his own what gave me hope. I mixed the calcium and d3 powder with some water in a spray bottle and dropped it on his nose and he drank a decent amount.Well he's still not eating today.....and honestly I don't know how much longer I can keep going! He's so small already and though he's active. He has lost weight. I might try going back to bugs and maybe trying baby food. Maybe after a while he'd get used to the flavor of veggies.
I'm so two minded though. Part of me wants to keep going since he's already gone so far and the other half of me says we can try again later this is too much. He's much too underweight as it is. ahhhhhhh
Yeah but who?I hope this teaches you a lesson: not to withhold bugs. You are basicly silently letting this poor little guy starve to death. If he dies it is basicly your fault not providing the bugs he needs for basking. People like you should not have a bearded dragon as a pet in the first place by withholding bugs and expecting to eat a salad on his own and it is unacceptable. I dont have a bearded dragon but it upsets me that people do these kind of things to a bearded dragon and expect it to eat a salad on their own by withholding bugs. The original poster needs to be investigated for animal cruelty.
Where the heck did you come from LOL, you couldn’t be more wrong.Im so tired of people withholding insects. It is their main damn meal. If a bearded dragon will not eat salads let them be.

Yes I’d love to see it LOLAnd you base your statement off of....?

Well good thing you don’t because the vitamins, calcium, minerals, and hydration would all be lacking with your dragon if it wasn’t getting any greens.I hope this teaches you a lesson: not to withhold bugs.
