Tired of eating crickets?

[RobertD]

Is it possible for a bearded dragon to get tired of eating crickets and the such? My girl was starting to get to the point where she was eating less and less crickets, it was suggested that she was just making the transition from crickets to veggies. But as time went on it was getting to the point where she wouldn't eat them at all. Then I got some dubia roaches and she was going all for them. Today I decided to get a bucket of waxworms, which she has always loved and she ate a couple of them and then ignored the rest.

It's ok. I think she doesn't like wax worms anymore. I had gave her another one this morning. She licked it a few times and then grabbed it up. Ate half of it and then spit the rest of it out.

Mine did that with kale .... Maybe her tastes have changed that or maybe there was a bad one in the last bunch u got and now she doesn't like them ... Not sure keep trying different things
