Vegetable Replacement?

[rattazzios]

Today is my 2 week anniversary with Boise who is about 6 inches. Originallyher diet was crickets but now its Phoenix Worms. She has barely touched any vegetables so i was wondering is their anything i can feed her as a proper substitute for vegetables???

From what I understand, babies and juveniles rarely eating their veggies is normal. Just offer them everyday and eventually as they get older they should eat them. Along with veggies, I offer a small dish of rep-cal juvenile bearded dragon pellets, but these shouldn't replace veggies. I just use them as a option. Have you tried putting the phoenix worms on the salad to see if he gets some veggies when he goes for the worms?

I have tried but she wont eat them if they are on the salad. the have to be either next to it or out of the food dish

I wouldn't worry too much, but maybe some others will have more ideas. I think they are like human kids, they don't like their veggies!
