I've had my plated lizard for about 4 months, and he has never once accepted any fruits or vegetables. He'll eat all manners of insects voraciously and regularly, but he just refuses all the fruits and vegetables that it recommends in the care sheets. How essential are fruits and vegetables in their diet? Should I be worried he's going to have vitamin deficiencies? Also, is there any trick to getting him to eat some?
