Just turned 5 months! Favorite staple is salad with lots of collard greens. Favorite treat is hornworms!Elon is sure a big dragon! Hornworms are great for hydration and are tastey too. Here is a picture thru glass of me yesterday, dad says I am getting a bit to chubby but I just ate. Have a...
Welcome! First give your beardie a salad every day, collards, turnip. Mustard green mix works well. Get some powdered bee pollen, sprinkle on salad.
Do not feed mealworms! Can cause impaction. Crickets, dubia or discoid roaches, superworms, hornworms are ok. Diet should be 80% salad at this...
I would take her to a vet and get her checked out for parasites. As far as food, are you dusting all live food with calcium w/D3? Should do this 4 days a week, 2 days with vitamins, one day no food or lights to give her a rest.
For salad mine like a mix of collards, turnip and mustard greens...
Get rid of the red bulb. Get a basking white bulb. Get a uvb fixture and bulb that covers 2/3 of the tank length. Fresh salad every day along with dusted roaches or crickets. Give him one day off with no heat or lights or live food (as long as it stays above 60 degrees. Dust with vitamins 2 days...
They love roaches (dubia or discoids) superworms, hornworms etc. I give mine salad every day of collard, turnip and mustard greens with bee pollen sprinkled on top. Once a week a rasberry or blueberry as a treat. At his size and age he should be eating mostly greens with around 20% live protein.
Dont mist, maybe use an eye dropper to put a drop on his nose, often they will lick it up as it runs down. Hornworms have a lot of fluid in them, are real juicy suckers. Best deal I have found is from eastcoastfeeders.com
As long as he is not losing weight I would not worry unless he is looking sick. Hornworms have no skeleton, so he can eat small ones no problem. Up to 1-1/2" will not be a problem. Also try dusting his salad and feeders with powdered bee pollen, it helps their immune system. And of coarse...
What is your enclosure setup like? What are night time temps? Do you put a salad out for him every day? This is not unusual, beardies will often take a break from eating much for several days at a time. I find hornworms seem to stimulate appetite and hydrates them.
