Mushu is about 13" from head to tail. Guessing about 6 months. I'm trying to get suggestions on what exactly to feed him to balance his diet. The insects he's eating now consist of mostly Crickets and a Superworm or two as a treat each day. Today I tried Bok Choy, Carrots and an Apple. I'm looking for as many combinations as everyone can throw at me. Also, let me know if there's a way to do this so I don't have to chop every single day:)

Thanks in advance!!!

He's adorable. Dubia roaches are a great diet staple. Expensive to buy at a pet store but easy to breed. At six months he's just probably starting to eat greens. A sharp knife will be a good friend. Welcome to the forum

Dubia Roaches are illegal in Florida:( That's why I recently added Superworms to his diet. Don't want him getting bored with Crickets...

I chop all my greens, dry them as good as I can and put them in a plastic ziplock bag with a folded paper towel in side. The paper towel helps absorb excess liquid that would make the greens go bad fast. They last the whole week. Anything hard like squash, carrots, sweet potato I shred and keep covered in a bowl in the fridge.
