since your dragon is young i wouldnt worry too much about green intake...but if you want to get him interested you can try squash...for some reason mine go insaneeeee over squash and brightly colored things and squash is good enough to eat as a staple...also you can squeeze some fruit over the greens so they smell sweet and it should entice them to eat them

so it would be safe to squeeze a little juice from a fresh orange on the greens? But it's not safe to feed them actual fruit that is really citrusy and acidic (like oranges, etc)? My dragon is about 6 mos.

He has his days where he eats all his greens, and days where he doesn't touch them. I offer them daily anyways but don't want my money to go to waste either.
