Not many young beardies eat greens. Keep offering them and eventually he will get curious. I always feed my veggies before other foods because that way, they will be hungrier for anything and try the greens. Its not anything to worry about when he's only 7 inches.

I made the SaMe thread when i first got my beardie.. after a while he'll just start eating them by him self.. I would be like "EAT THEM!" LOL. i'd try putting some in his mouth.. after a little while he noticed that they were TaStY and he loves them now.. 
also u can try mixing meal worms on top of the veggies and the will go for a worm and accidently eat a veggie and be like, "nummy!". Just keep trying.. 
Goodluck!!
