 Bearded Dragon

I have a question, I just purchased for the 1st time a Bearded Dragon and she is about 4 months old and I noticed within the last week that from her middle of her shoulder blades down her back & legs the skin is discolored from a golden color to a pale white color and I wanted to know why?

She is eatting more than her usual crickets per day (12), she is eatting more like 17 and is not really eatting the green lettuce or cylantro I cut up for her? Is this normal?

The skin discoloration problem means your dragon is going to shed. With the veggies, young ones don’t take to them sometimes very quickly, especially if the pet store had not been feeding it to them. I use Kale and Collard but they love all different shapes and colors. Check online for the different veggies and fruits they can have and look around your fridge and finely cut some up to make a salad.
