Any help would be appreciated,Si was 1yr old in march,he used to eat his greens and crickets daily,worms and fruit for snacks.Now since being sick for almost two months he will not eat ANY greens or crickets,all he will eat is supers,phoenix and horn worms,I have tried everything on the"list" of veggies and he just runs through them,I put his worms in the salad,nope,picks them out..im afraid we have ruined him by hand feeding him for so long! He is gaining weight,shedding,color is perfect,but I know he needs his greens! Anyone know of anything I can try that I haven't already?

Dexter is the same way. I recently bought some off the wall things on the list, (choyoke, WTH is that?), no luck. She's very stubborn about eating her veggies.

I do the same thing. Hopefully one day she will eat them. Now, Luci who is 9 1/2 months will eat all of his greens and want more!
