HELP!! worried beginner owner

[Ashe]

I've had my bearded dragon for around 13 days now, she's not had any stress marks and she loves to cuddle up with me. The pet shop told me she was 6 months old but she seems too small to be that age??

I've ran into 2 main problems with her. The first being she refuses to eat vegetablesz I've tried all tricks on this websites none have seemed to work. I even went as far as not feeding her for 2 days and offering veggies the third day but she refuses, I dont see the point in me going to a vet as I know she was fed veggies at all in the pet shop and only 1 meal a day from what it looked like. I was hoping for any other ways in which I could try get her to eat veggies and or fruits?

My second problem comes in only today. My beardie has beautiful blue marks on her back that are light in colour and never seemed to go any darker. Until today. Here's some pictures.

Extra info :
She's a female goes by the name Blu
Her poop is normal, it's wet has the white part and darker part too it nothing unusual about it.
She's 6 months of age apparentlymaking her born in June. Her basking light is 200 Watt as given from the pet shopand the temp goes to about 30-36. C and her UVB light states 36 watt? She has her cool end and hot end the cool end going to 20-25. C. she's a very chill dragon? She doesn't do much not even in her tank and I'm jot sure if that's because in the pet shop he tank was so bare and only had a single stick in it.
My last piece of Info is that she's on reptile carpet which she loves so much more that newspaper or tissue paper.

Please can any give a slight indication as to what's wrong or if she's healthy?!

Toss the reptile carpet, it only harbors bacteria. Second, try bee pollen dusted on the veggies, or toss some supers or mealies in to make the veggies “move” so it catches her attention. Also beautiful blue coloration! They will change colors continuously as the grow especially, also the darker they become at times means an upcoming shed.

Beautiful dragon! Many dragons are undersized for a variety of reasons such as small enclosure, sharing an enclosure, parasites, genetics etc. Yours is not a bad size, Ive seen some the same age that were half as big. Nothing a good size enclosure, proper feeding and time wont solve.

Thank you for the replies!
It's quite hard too look after this dragon as my parents don't seem to understand she's not like a dog and has completely other needs. I live in the UK and my pets at home doesn't seem to sell anything other than the standard brown crickets, black, locusts or meal worms. I'll be attempting to see what the pet shop offers from where she was bought but I am not tempted to buy from online as I just couldn't simple pay for the good AND shipping. So far Blu seems super happy, her enclosure is pretty big and I have noticed yesterday she only ate a blue Berry because it accidentally rolled out my hand (I hate how picky she is )

I know that we have some other members that are in the UK so I hope that they chime in on where and what they buy feeder insect wise..But as long as she is happy that is what matters..

A 200watt bulb!!!!! I didn't even know they made those. I would think it would be cooking her. What are you checking your temps with? She's going to get darker when she is absorbing the UVB, nothing to worry about. She is still young and should still be eating mostly bugs so I wouldn't worry about the veggies too much right now.
