I was wondering when i shift from mostly protein to a more vegitable diet. my beardie is 9 months old?
Also what vegitables besides collard greens and kale would be good staples?

Your beardie has a lot more growing to do, they continue to grow quite rapidly until about 1 1/2 yrs. He will actually decide himself when he wants to cut back on the protein. If you're offering feeders twice a day, one of those feedings he will start eating less and less, then you'll know that only 1 protein feeding is needed and that it's time to give lots of greens/veggies.

Kale really isn't isn't a good staple because it binds calcium. Here's the site that shows the best to feed: http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Nutrition.html

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
