I have a female bearded dragon of whom is around three years old, give or take. She will not eat her green or vegetables of which is given to her. She is very energetic and will eat insects. I give her calcium, vitamins, and probiotics two to three times a week. She has a 120 gallon tank with a gradient air temperature of 105°F to 75°F, give or take. She has a mat, so no substrate is provided. She defecates regularly, and it appears healthy. So, I am honestly torn.. I love her very much and do anything and everything to keep her happy and healthy. The greens of which I give her are mustard, collard, turnip, kale (occasionally), and radicchio (again, occasionally), she is not given fruit, and sometimes receives squash (acorn or butternut). She doesn't get many fatty insects and is provided Flukers live crickets. Her body is beautiful (no injuries or infections). Can anyone give any advice as to what I should do?
Thank you,

Also the dark spot on the back looks like a burn how close is the basking bulb and how are you getting temps off the hammock if that is the basking decor? I see stick ons you need a digital probe thermometer to get accurate temps that is MUST for a hammock---- shes got a good diet going ---- lets go over UVB ---- what are you using NO coils please --long tube fixture is recommended -- coils are no good and in adequate --- I can make some suggestions / recommendations for UVB fixtures please let me know -- NO Thrive or Zilla brand -- please get some raw unpasteurized honey on the back -- example of a good honey is Manuka -- that will promote healing but you need to get a temp of where she is sitting for basking -- as far as eating her vegies most people struggle w/ that including me - I have one that wont eat veggies so I use horn worms and put them on top of the salads for lures -- when he goes after the worm he will get veggies -- they are a key essential for water for them as that is where they get most of their moisture
