Dragon won't go near fruit ...... and some other questions

jwatts May 04, 2004 11:15 AM

Hi our dragon is just a bit over a year old and we can't for the life of us get her to eat any fruit. She seems deathly afraid of it. She will eat greens, although mainly only mustard greens. She is a really fussy dragon. Are some dragons just like that?

From reading on here it seems most dragons like fruit but she runs from any fruit we put down, we bought her rep cal pellets and she ran from them too, we imagine because of the fruity smell. We bought her some zoo med pellets and she likes them. She'll nibble on them throughout the day. in addition to her superworms and greens.

Also she just came out of hibernation a month and a half ago or so and she's eating pretty much everyday now, not a ton of food but she's slowly increasing her intake. The thing is she's only going to the bathroom about once every two or three days. Is that ok? She isn't compacted or anything when she goes they are really big.
