My boy will be 3 on Aug 1st.( happy birthday Rex) I have noticed a decline in his appetite. I follow the nutrition chart and I am strict. He seems to want to chew ALOT lately too. Just wondering if anyone has noticed a decline in appetite during the summer months. He will eat prickly pears every day right now, but shows less interest in the normal things he regularly loves to eat. Energy level seems ok though.

What are you feeding him? Maybe he is bored with his old foods. Ace does that's sometimes where one day he likes something and the next he won't touch it.

His foods are. Henrys picky blocks, avacados, kale, broccoli, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, snap peas, cranberries, oranges, apples, grapes, watermelon, cactus pads, prickly pears, guava, coconut. In the summer months, hibiscus, roses, young oak leaves, pear branches, hackberry branches, ,Greek gods honey yogurt. There is probably a few things I am forgetting.

I looked up the Greek God's Honey yogurt and found it noted on Amazon.com that this product has a short shelf life. If it was older when you got it, after opening it, it may have developed fungus issues as is common with honey. Just a thought mind you.
Kale can be a problematic food source.

Yes I check them pretty much every day. They seem ok to me . Not too long and everything inside his mouth looks normal as well. He can chew a black Walnut and a whole coconut still with no problem. Thank you and I will look again tonight to make sure I am not over looking something
