No veggies at all. These animals are purely carnivorous and most likely will not even eat them, but if he does it could possibly mess with his digestive system. The things that I mentioned in my other post are all that he needs for his entire life. He really isn't underweight at all. You can feed him quite a bit right now but he will probably eat till he kills himself so you do have to regulate it. While he is young he most likely will not get overweight but his growth will slow down and then you have to be careful. Be careful leaving crickets in with him if he isn't eating them because they can and will chew on him. I have seen animals killed by crickets so you want to clean out whatever he does not eat. They will also stress him out just being in there if he isn't eating them.
