Hey guys i was just wondering, my baby is starting to eat veggies and i was wondering if i can leave the bowl of veg on the hot side of the cage. Its around 106 degrees there, would that make the food go bad.

I do this because my dragon dont really go on the side of her cage where its cold or i would put the veggies on that side. So any suggestions guys? Thanks

My girl likes to stay on the warm side of her tank too and she likes to be up high. Sometimes I will trail her veggies along her vine leading her to the cool side of the tank. She's a little vacuum so she usually follows it.

@Kobe24 - It is the norm to place greens\food on the cool side, so the heat does not dry them out so quickly. I was noticing that you have your food dish on a raised platform in one of your pics on another of your threads. This is only a suggestion, but you may find that it would be more accessible & easier for it to see it's greens without having to climb, if you placed the food dish on the floor. This would place them more often in it's line of sight from most areas of the enclosure, to spark it's interest in them.
