I would definitely try the greens that are easy to find....collard greens, turnip greens, mustard greens, escarole and endive....I have never had one not eat their greens,,, I raise beardies and they eat their greens by 2 weeks old...try BN squash and sweet potato.... they love sweet potato...add fresh green beans, cabbage, and parsnips, maybe if you drop them from above all around your dragon...this is what I do with babies... I hope this helps...yellow squash and zuchinni squash too. Take good care B

I actually had to do the "tough love" with mine as well. I didn’t completely cut out their bugs, but I cut back a LOT...making them good and hungry. Now, I have 4 beardies (yes, I am crazy!!) and they all go nuts for their greens/veggies. The 3 year old male actually gets excited in the morning when he sees his salad bowl...he even tries to steal a bite before I put the bowl down! Hang in there...he will learn to love (or at least tolerate) his veggies
