I have a 5 month old cherry head that is a fussy eater. Took him several months to actually eat enough to gain any weight. He is now on a steady growth pattern but he will only eat Mazzuri, Fluke and hibiscus leaves/flowers, as well as some chicken & some fruit when given. I constantly put new and different weeds, veggies, plants and mixed greens in his cage be he won't touch them. He also does not eat anything if I put calcium on it. I do think he sometimes eats the sprouted tortoise seed mix that I have in his habitat, as he poops more than I see him eat and I've seen grass hanging out of his mouth. Anyway, at what age do these picky eaters start eating like big kids? Please do not suggest removing the food items that he likes at this time, as I just got him growing and I don't want to go backwards. He has been to vet and has been given a clean bill of health.
