about what age is my bearded dragon

[GALAXY_dr4g0n111]

when I first got my bearded dragon on November 1, he was about 4 inches long, now he is 15 inches long, his tail is a little dull so I don't know what happened to it, I'm not sure how old he is, he eats about 10 insect each day and a few vegetables, I think he's about 8 months old but I'm not quite sure,

any estimates?,

4" my guess around 3 months- is he getting salads? Feed the staple insect every day till one year- then go to 2-3 times per week - tail is going to shed

i got him 5 months ago, he's eating crickets as his staple insects, sometimes worms but not many. he doesn't like Dubai roaches.

Are you feeding salads? What kind of worms have you tried?

 

[GALAXY_dr4g0n111]

yes, he's getting salads every day, I tried super worms and hornworms, but I don't feed them everyday.

The super worms can be fed every other day 1-3 and horn worms fed every day till fed off they do grow really fast - you can also try silk worms as a staple feeder - its too bad hes not a fan of dubias they are a better staple than crickets - they tend to give parasites - BSFL are another good staple feeder but you would need to feed a lot since they are so small -

ok, when he turns 1, how much insect and veggies do we feed him?

He should go to insects 2-3 times per week salads every day - treat worms every other day - a good variety is good
