Picky Eaters

When it comes to certain foods, my lizards both Greg and Terri wont eat them. I worry their nutrition suffers because of it and i was wondering what i can do to get these two stubron bone heads to eat more fruits and veggies.

Re: Picky Eaters

i know the water dradons have been known to eat veg but they are primarily carnivorous what they eating at the moment?
i know also that the uromastyx love dandelions both the leaves and the flower and also nastursiums leaves and flowers they are good for stubborn feeders if you can get them make sure that they are from a pesticide free source! The Aussies that i had wouldnt touch veg(i did try) but they loved lobster roaches i used to breed them myself very nutritious low chitin content etc easy to breed yourself and do not infest mine loved earthworms too also from a safe source hope i have been a help

Re: Picky Eaters

terri will eat any bug that he can get his mouth on. which has mostly been crickets and superworms. the only friut or veggie ive gotten him to eat is blue berries, hell completly ignore anything else ive mixed in with them.
greg with eat green red and romaine lettuces, and small bok choy, only the leave on dandylions and finch seed.
