    Help! Juvenile eating worms by the thousands!

    We have been feeding our bearded dragon, Moshe,using the rule where you let them eat as much as they want for 15 minutes at a time we do this twice a day. He's been eating about 20 each time, and then wondering if this means that he's going to be fat, or if he's just a growing juvenile please...

    Baby Beardie Only Wants Papaya, What Do I Do?

    Hello! So, I have a baby bearded dragon named Thor, and I've been having troubles getting her to eat her fruits and veggies. She eats them most of the time now, although sometimes I have to use tweezers to get her to eat them (that's what I use for waxworms and other foods so I think it tricks...

    Over weight???

    Here’s some pics of Drogon and I was wondering how can I tell if I’m feeding him too much? I don’t think I am but I just want to be positive. He doesn’t drag his stomach or anything, he’s about 7-8 months old (I think we never got a DOB), good leg strength but his tail looks a little thick. And...

And I know I'm going to catch alot of crap for this but I need anything else I can feed Gizmo other than crickets or roaches as my daughter will literally fly into a panic attack on sight of them. To be clear she has no...

    What Plants Are Safe To Grow In Enclosure?

    I recently had to remove the synthetic plants that were in my dragons enclosure because she ocasionally tried to eat them. Since then the lack of greenery is off-putting, and I would like to add some live, edible plants for her to munch on. I've already added some celery since I know she can eat...

    Delayed Cricket Shipment! Protein alternatives?

    Help! My last shipment of crickets didn't last as long as I had hoped (he ate a LOT but many also died because I am still figuring out how to keep crickets), so now my beardie is out of crickets and the next shipment won't arrive for a few days, or longer if this snow keeps up. He's still young...

    This is Pumpkin, she is 2.5 years old. (See thumbnails) She mainly eats hoppers, around 8 each afternoon, (I gut-feed my hoppers with vegetables and bug jellies). She also has a few worms every other day. She is EXTREMELY fussy with her greens and Rocket is the only thing she will eat. I’ve...

    Hornworms

    I know it might seem like a silly question and if it is; I'm sorry. But when would it be a good time to start Bones on hornworms? Would they be a good treat? Every other day sort of thing? How long do they keep for? I read that they're the caterpillar form of a moth? Just any info or tips would...

    Does this look healthy?

    Hello. I'm new to taking care of beardies. Godzilla is about 9 months old at minimum and is very energetic and has a good appetite. However I'm worried about his poop looking a little off. I'm willing to answer any questions if needed and provide any pictures as well. I just want to make sure he...

    Protein Substitute

    Hello, I recently moved to another state to the middle of nowhere essentially. After doing some research, the closest place I can get gut loaded crickets or any live feed for the matter is close to a 2 hour drive away. Currently a 3-4 hour round trip drive for live feed is unfeasible. Is...
