IS there a change? **He will ONLY eat super worms. I have a bowl and he is offered veggies and some fruits but never eats them. We used to be able to put the super worms in a bowl and he would grab them with his tongue. Now it’s almost like he’s lost his sense of depth. He tries so hard to grab them but will miss them or hit the side of his bowl. I bought bamboo tongs from the pet store and have been feeding him daily but am not sure how many to feed him. He doesn’t seem blind because he can take them off the tongs but maybe losing sight?? What size, kind and how many/much insects does he eat daily? **I was told he used to love crickets, but now won’t eat them. I don’t think he can catch them. I’ve put some in his cage and they will sit on him. What do you feed the insects normally? Is the dragon eating greens/veggies? **I have a bowl and he is offered veggies and some fruits but never eats them. What and how much? Supplements? **none What kind of calcium/how often? What kind of vitamins how often How are these given to him?
