These kinds of gimmicks might fool owners; I'm not sure they're going to fool the reptiles. (BICBW)
1. They know/can smell the difference between live & dead prey, even if freeze-dried. :wink:
2. Would you eat from a vibrating dish? :shock:
That said, I do have a similar problem. If it doesn't move, ZaRDoZ won't eat it, or even check it out. The Force (feeder instinct) is strong in this one. :laughing6:
The solution so far is serving live prey--with salad cut into mouthful size pieces--mixed together. The bugs/worms crawling around make the salad move. When he goes for a bug/worm, he usually gets some greens with it, and once in the mouth it goes down. I call it, "salad with his steak". :lol: Occasionally, he comes up with a mouthful of salad, and it still goes down. Any larger pieces of salad/greens get spit out. He walked around the other day with a piece stuck to his lip for 4 hrs, which was funny, but it didn't go in so it didn't go down.
Dang, that's hard.NBGwen":3h9xpzfq said:"I want the freedom to carve and chisel my own face, to staunch the bleeding with ashes, to fashion my own Gods from my entrails." - Gloria Anzualdua
MrSpectrum":1ttgdnrv said:Well, if you skipped the puree-ing part, and used live bugs/worms (supers) instead of dehydrated, I think the rest might work out about the same. Do you gut load your bugs and/or use a vitamin supplement (e.g. herptivite)?

That looks a lot like "chop" for birds (without the bugs in, although some birds might enjoy that as well). My dragon also barely eats veggies so far, but he does take a bite here and there, so there's hope. I just keep offering. Took one of my birds *18 months* of daily offered veggies before he so much as tried any. Now he goes right to the veggie dish when I place it. Hoping Norbert will have that same sort of "on" switch at some point. ?NBGwen":1lr8dq5r said:Hey gang - here's what I've been feeding the boys.

That's what I thought until you told me what's in it.NBGwen":isk9pcc4 said:I figure if it looks good to me, maybe it will look good to them... :?
That's what I thought too, only he goes straight for the supers and ignores everything else--including his beloved num-numz (dubia roaches)--holding out for more supers. They're... insidious! :lol:I'll keep putting it in their enclosures with supers added in (live of course) in hopes of drawing them to it!
