Accidential Food

My 6 month old (7" not including tail) beardie accidentially (on purpose) ate a large black & yellow bumble bee a few hours ago while he was outside sunning. I'm worried - will the venom in the bee harm him? This is the second time it's happened in the last 3 days!!! Obviously no more off leash walks in the garden for him!!

Need real advise, real soon!

Thanks
JS

Bumble bees shouldn't be poisonous to a beardie. Although not a good food choice. I would make sure you soak your beardie in some nice warm soaks to help move along the digestion of it. If you continue to take walks outside, try and stay away from areas known to have the bees. Obviously if you see any changes for the worse, see a vet.
