Dexter will eat dubais and pieces of collared greens from my hand. It's convenient for feeding veggies. Do most dragons eagerly take greens when you hold it I front of them? Or is that just dexter

Each one is different. My boy doesn't really like to be fed right from my hand but he will devour a bowl of veggies all on his own. Sometimes if he is being real lazy he will eat a few pieces from my hand but that happens rarely. My Dexter, won't eat anything out of my hand not even worms. I have been having luck with her lately though. If I put Reptivite on her greens she will eat them out of the bowl when she thinks I'm not looking.

Fiona does not like veggies or fruit....I am sure other owner only fed her a little squash as that is what he told us to feed...so she is if it does not move I don't want it.....

I bought some super worms to see if she liked them and she LOVES them....so meanie me put a worm under her greens....greens moved and she ate them..of course not enough but it was more then normal...

children, they are all the same...

Hey its a start, and that's what I started doing but using dubia roaches with my 2 babies and now they both are eating endive first thing in the morning and different times throughout the day. Just make a new batch of fresh grrens every morning.

Mine don't fall for the worm in the salad trick, they just eat the worm.
