so for the past few monthes, I have been feeding a combination of greens, frozen/thawed veggies, and flukers pellets (my grandma got them for me and I didn't want them to go to waste...they are all red..which comes into play later). So I noticed my beardie was eating almost only the pellets from his food, and basically leaving the rest, so I decided to get some repcal pellets, because they're a more balanced diet.
I just put some in today, and went in to check on him, and he has only eaten the two red pellets. There are tons of green pellets and a couple tan, but he's only eaten the red. My question is, how do I get him to eat the other colors? And another question, why doesn't repcal sell an all red version of their pellets? That seems like the color most dragons love doesn't it? Well, I've got another week of feeding these pellets before I can really figure out if he's going to give me trouble with the green and tan pellets, but I'm hoping he'll get the picture.
Has anyone else on here had a goofy beardie like this?
On a side note, I'm in the first few treatments for strongylls with my beardie, and he's seemingly acting fairly healthy, except for being a little lethargic in the morning, but he almost always gets up after I put food in his cage (must be something her got used to over the school year). The only thing I have been worrying about are that his poop is still looking pretty bad. Yesterday it was awful, almost like a big booger, but I'm only in the first month and a half of a three month treatment. When should I expect to see changes in the poop? What are good ways of keeping a steril environment?
thanks.
