Bearded Dragon Greens

 

Bearded Dragon Greens

The second half of a Bearded dragon's diet should consist of an assortment of torn or shredded Bearded dragon fruit, vegetables, herbs, flowers and flower leaves (Bearded dragon greens). A shallow container with a mixture of the correct size greens should always be available in the cooler end of the vivarium.

A dynamic mixture of Bearded dragon greens will not only prevent boredom and stimulate appetite, but will also increase the diversity of vitamins and minerals to the animal. One should try to change only one or two items at a time over about three days to ensure adequate gastrointestinal adaptation. At least three to five different ingredients should be mixed together at a time. Fresh greens will contain more nutrients compared to spoiled, cooked or baked ones. All ingredients should be washed / rinsed with potable running tap water to remove dirt and potential pesticides before feeding.
