Hi I have a red footed guy who is almost 1year old. He loves meal worms, dandelion flavour dry food and fruit, but I cannot get him to eat any fresh greens! HE is growing well and seems healthy enough but I am looking for any ideas.
Won't eat greens

Squeeze fruit juice onto the greens.

They CAN get spoiled.
You can finely chop everything together or do as Wellington suggested.
You can also just feed greens for a while. Trust me. They'll eat anything once they get hungry.

You can also start with something "less green" - e.g. radicchio, hibiscus flowers or mushrooms. I didn't have to explain mine that it's a food. But there is still an ongoing fight over cactus pads, cilantro or mallow. You can wet and mush pellets with some fine chopped greens.
Be prepared for a long struggle - weeks or months. They can be very stubborn.
