    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have been giving my dragon repashy calcium plus with every feeding and I wanted to know if this is a good valcium vitamin supplement and second she is about 7 to 8 months old and I cannot get to eat her greens I even have tried hand feeding her the greens and nothinh.

Please Help!!!!
 
From what I have heard, Repashy is a good brand to use.

Tricks I have tried with greens are always feed greens earlier in the day, that way they aren't full of the insects they favor most. Also what has worked in the past for me is to mix the greens with worms, or toss crickets/roaches onto them to try and trick them into accidentally eating them.
 
I have been mixing small superworms into her greens but she seems to just pick them out of the greens only I guess she will eventually come around to it.

Thank You
 
Visual stimulation! =]

I start out with newborn babies, slowly sprinkling tiny greens onto their papertowel. It tricks them into thinking it's alive, and they eat it. Even with adults, you have to sometimes visually stimulate them into eating or drinking. I put the empty bowl in the tank and slowly put in a handful of greens and veggies. And with water, slowly pouring it into the bowl get's them drinking. They cannot see the water as it is clear, and sometimes they forget the habit and get dehydrated so refreshing it by pouring it in, in front of them helps.
 
You can also try different flowers like hibiscus, rose petals, mustard flowers, dandelion, etc. Instead of chopping up the greens, try putting in a large leaf. It's more natural, and good for them to tear and eat their greens.
