Hi all, my bearded dragon is currently a year and a half old and refuses to eat greens, how can I get her to eat her greens?

Get some bsfl / nutri grubs/ calci worms/ phoenix worms all the same drop them in front of her on the salads - it will get her attention they are a good staple feeder- get large you will need a bowl like glass or ceramic to keep them in feed first thing in the morning on her salads -

We’re doing that but she either doesn’t look at them, or sees them and doesn’t eat them

You can try using a topper on her salad. I use a flower topper (I crush them in my hands and sprinkle it on the salad), but you can also use bee pollen or salad dressing made specifically for reptiles. A slurry can help to get the taste in their mouth. Just put a couple foods safe for bearded dragons in a blender and make it really smooth. Use a syringe to drop some in her mouth. Sometimes moving the greens in front of them can help as they like going for things that move.
