feeding question

[Sunkiss]

My dragon is 6 months old. We feed her crickets, sprinkled with calcium, every morning. We feed her meal worms every night and have veggies available for her daily. Is this right or should we change something?

You should also add in a multi-Vitamin.

Most people do 5 days calcium - 2 days multi at this age.

I use this multi-vitamin

This contains extra vitamins that they do not get in the food we feed them.

Thank you. She doesn't really eat her veggies...she nibbles a little and sometimes accidentally ingests when going for a worm.
Should I give her different worms?

For their 1st 7-9 months, dragons should get a mostly protein diet. 80% protein-20% veg.

Well she gets it. LOL
She loves live prey....it is really neat to watch her go after the prey.
I do wonder if we should be giving her different worms. Is what I am giving her sufficient?

Superworms are recommended over mealworms, their nutritional content is a little better & they're just as easy 2 get. Waxworms, roaches, hornworms & Reptiworms are alternatives as well.
