    New Bearded Dragon Adoption Advice

    I adopted a ~2 year old male bearded dragon about a week ago. He hasn’t eaten much coming to me, he has only pooped once, and hadn’t been super active. I just want to make sure it’s safe to attribute this to relocation stress and not make care or health (vet appointment for the end of the...

    Beardie hates veggies

    Any advice on how to get my beardie to start eating veggies on his own? I’ve tried bee pollen, insects in his salad, flower toppings, etc. Every now and then he’ll grab a green by accident but will refuse to eat after that like I offended him. I just want him to eat his veggies ;-;

    Super worms?

    I’ve been feeding smaug (around 3 months old) superworms. He loves them, but I’ve been hearing stories of beardies getting addicted to them and not eating regular food after a while and I’ve been wondering how many it’s appropriate to feed him per week?

    Canned crickets?

    Ive been trying some alternatives lately such as dubia roaches and new vegetables too, but I haven't really noticed canned crickets until recently. Not having to deal with live bugs all the time would be a godsend does anyone have experience with these, and can they replace live insects...

    Hello! So, I have a baby bearded dragon named Thor, and I've been having troubles getting her to eat her fruits and veggies.

    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...
