When we got miga she was already partially adjusted to veggies because she was a rescue but wookie is from a pet store so she is not yet adjusted I was wondering if any of you had advice on how to get them adjusted to veggies?
 
You just need to start by offering a small amount of one at a time. Over time you can add more variety and increase quantity but any change to the diet needs to be done very gradually
 
Starting with some tasty herbs like coriander/cilantro and parsley might tempt her, but as @Piggies&buns says dont overdo things until her tummy adjusts to new foods!
 
Would carrots be a good thing to start with?

Carrots should be regarded as treats and not fed frequently.
As pigglepuggle advised, fresh herbs are often a good thing to start with as they tend to be easier on a tummy unprepared for veg
