Hi I was told to only feed my baby dubia roaches, but I feel like she should have other things to try. What is the proper diet for a seven month old beardie?

He should be eating salads or at least some - please start now offering every day -- http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Nutrition.html ignore the kale info its outdated and a good staple feeder - at one year of age he should go to insects 2-3 times per week and salads every day - a variety of insects like dubias -- BSFL -- silk worms are good - treat worms like supers horn butter worms - I dont recommend wax worms they are very fatty and fed too many and too long can cause liver issues -- you can feed but feed very sparingly - meal worms are a treat worm and can be offered as well - just limit them as he will get hooked on all the treat worms -- are you dusting the roaches? Make sure your using a good long tube fixture for a UVB coils are not adequate and he will not be able to absorb / synthesize the calcium supplement your giving
