She doesn't like Food Lion's Turnip Greens, doesn't like Kroger's Turnip Greens and Dandelion Greens, nor does she like Food City Turnip Greens. But she does like Walmart's Turnip Greens. (All Fresh)

She's tired of red peppers and squash. Says no to bee pollen powder. Smells it. Turns her head away from the salad. Tried Repashy Grub Pie as a one time use to get her some hydration. She loved it.

So, I went to Food Lion and bought some turnip greens. Nope. She turned her head at them. I went to Walmart and bought fresh Turnip Greens. She still turned her head at them even with red pepper and squash.

I also bought some Reptaboost around the same time as Repashy.

I took a chance on the Repashy. I made a slurry - like a dressing. I drizzled Repashy on her greens, hand fed some of the leaves drizzled with Repashy. She gobbled them up and nearly took my finger too. She ate her greens today.

She's also 18 inches now and is shedding on her head. So, she's annoyed with that too.

They tend to get crabby when shedding - your on a role w/ finding out what she likes -- keep it up :)

Oh, she's so crabby. She missed me a lot. I was so busy that I didn't get a chance to love on her before I left yesterday. Today, she got a make-up day of love, hand-feeding, and encouragement, oh, and lots of beard kisses. She really likes the attention. She's totally different than Maya. I sometimes call her Maya.

I also had a visitor in the house today. A juvenile skink. He or she managed to find their way in somewhere. Saw the tail head under the stove. During dinner, I saw the sweet baby come out and try to find a place to hide. I saw him go in Leia's pen. I helped them outside. The baby tried to climb up my leg to come back into the house. I felt so bad letting him loose outside.

She had breakfast hand fed. She definitely isn't happy with her shedding. She's learned to be much more careful around my fingers. When she's done, she'll turn away and leave.
