Hello, what should you feed a dragon when feeding him with tongs? Again what food is used for feeding a dragon using a feeding bowl?veggies, plant based?And I’m guessing when feeding live creatures just let them roam freely for the dragon to feed upon?thanks much.

i dont completely understand your question, but you can technically tong/hand feed anything, just be careful as your dragon may get used to it and not eat any other way. you can put salads in a food bowl, along with worms. if you don’t feed him insects in a separate container, make sure you don’t leave any in with him after the feeding session so they don’t bother your dragon!

Sorry, I didn’t realize I posted this in the wrong forum. Probably should have posted this in the diet section.
I'm just asking what food is it common to feed a dragon using tongs? Greens?insects?
