a fw days it eats every few days but a little amount and yes i do and thats her feeding bin i put her in that and put her near a window to take a picture is spinach alright to feed her i have tried fruits but not apple

oh and shes on paper towel

when did she shed last ?

so you put her in a seperate bin to feed her then put her back in her enclosure?

I didnt think theyd brumate if kept indoors and their heat is kept at a constant all year round.

Mine just had its first shed since i got here, shes looking really good Mark

nice and shiny after a shed

and slippery!

yes

all the handling may be putting it off eating properly

Why the need for a separate enclosure? mine will attack a fork covered in tinned dog food with gusto! nom nom!

spinach is a bit dodgy. some sites say its a no no, others say occasionally.

shouldnt brumate unless temp has dropped or maybe of decent size and just feels its the time of year? ive still got 2 which are young but about 40cm, and theyve really slowed down in past month or so. Only feeding 2/3 times a week wher as prior almost every day. They seem sweet but its like they know its winter (temp has dropped a bit here but i still have a good 30C basking rock)

good luck i wouldnt worry too much as it doesnt look overly skinny.

morcs - they really do like the bannana eh, i mix it up with the catfood and greens so they dont just eat the banana

because she just goes in her cave and hides lol

my big one is burmating asleep

Why cat food? all my sources say dog food...

Dog food is a slightly more complete diet, whereas catfood is just meat due to them being carnivores...

I feed Hill science diet tins (yay for working at animates) and she loves it.

As for feeding, mine hides underneath my basking tile a lot, and when i want to feed, i just get her out and place her so her head is over the foodbowl, most of the time she will eat. other times she will walk right through the bowl and slither away.

I give mine the same salad i give my beardies. Nasturtium, mustard and dandelion leaves as the bulk of the salad. Little bit of clover, oregano. Parsley very occasionally. And flowers once a week when feeding daily or atm probably once a month. (but not much flowering here atm anyway other than nasturtium and some clover).

this is probably ok for a general guide for vege http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.c ... ition.html

Ive never seen them eat the greens on its own hence mix it up with catfood, that way if theyre hungry theyl eat it

ps 25C is too cold imo, want 30-35C

catfood comes in convenient pouches. Can get caserole with vege etc. Dog food is probaby ok to, but variety is key. Insects, fruit, vege, pinkies and baby birds etc probably best..

I put food in, let them eat then take out as soon as they walk off otherwise they like to walk through it and make a mess silly skanks
