WHY won't she eat her veggies like a good girl??

Postby Bluey13 » Wed Jun 21, 2017 8:38 pm

Hello! I have a four-year-old Iranian bluetongue who has had a rough past. I got it from someone who let her loose in the backyard and then said they found her. I was able to figure out that they actually owned Her and were just trying to get rid of her. I quickly fell in love with her and found out that the previous owners used to hand feed her so she's very gentle when she takes food from your hand. In fact for the first few months I could only feed her through hand; she would not take her food through a plate no matter how many different plates and bowls I tried to give her. I've since trained her to eat out of her bowl but I'm having an issue getting her to eat any kind of vegetable whatsoever. It doesn't matter if I boil it cut into tiny pieces or mix it into a scrambled egg she still will not eat her veggies. Any tips on what I can do to help her eat her veggies? :noknow:

a mix of repashi GRUBPIE and VEGGIEBURGER might be a good solution for her .... slowly increasing the amount of VEGGIEBURGER over time and mixing in greens and chopped veg .
