Yh that’s fine I’m happy to never feed him meal worms again no problem! The morio worms look like big meal worms what’s the difference ? We can get morio worms here would they be better than wax worms ?

Sorry I goofed morio worms are the same as meal worms --- you can get super worms they are different from the meal worms ---- the horn worms are also called goliath worms --- I dont know the terminology for your worms over there
Thanks, did you manage to show your friend the picture and see what they thought about it?
I have sent the post to her -- she hasnt responded yet but when she does I will get her response to you
Thank you I really appreciate your time and effort to respond and advise
I am working on it still no response yet
Here is this mornings sorry to keep posting pictures of his poo but maybe you can tell more from this one as there dosent seem to be many undigested bugs in this one ?

Actually there is stil undigested bugs I didn’t zoom in at first
She got back w/ me this is what she has said
In the first pic only does it look a bit off, might be that the locusts were a bit on the large side or maybe feeding too late to digest them real well. The other poos looked fine. Offer veggies like rocket [ arugula ] and a bit of kale to the diet if not already doing so. Feed the greens to the locusts as well, just a bit the night before giving to your dragon. I don't think you need a fecal done as long as his appetite is good .
Make sure he has plenty of basking time after eating -- 2-3 hrs
Thanks for helping, he eats some greens every day he has spring greens which is the same as collard greens apparently, also I gut load the locust aswell, I think it may be that some of the locusts may be a little bit too big so I will keep an eye on that I really appreciate your help, from the pic today did you think it looked ok in your opinion ?
I see lots of locust in the pic above-- how much time is he getting for basking after eating? And I would cut the size down your feeding and see what happens
His lights go off at 8pm and on at 7am and he has his food no later than six but sometimes half 5 so today I fed his second lot at 4pm and I will do that from now on and see if it makes any difference. Look forward to some more pictures of poo
Ok and try cutting the size down as well
Yes I will do, they do vary in size maybe I will try to order small ones and feed him more of them
Isnt there a chart on the site your getting them or are you buying in the store?
No there isn’t, I was told that he was on medium hoppers from the man I bought him off but some must be too big.. I have ordered small ones online yesterday and will put him on those from
Now on.
Get insects no bigger than the space between his eyes - he will eat more of them if they are too small so just be aware --
His last two have looked like this.. do they look more like they should be?

I am still seeing undigested bugs-- what size did you feed? And can you switch to a different insect?
I’ve been picking the smaller ones out for him and am awaiting a delivery for small locust instead of medium.
