Hi,
i'm not new to the forum (I have been on the beardie ER) I was wondering when you start lowering the feeder intake for a beardie. My little guy is 4 months and 1 week old about , 10 3/4 inches long and only 78 grams right now (I know he is a runt but he had a slow start which I have been correcting) Currently he eats roughly 30-45 crix a day which is mixed up with pheonix worms sometimes and he eats a little of his salad once a day. Some days he eats more than this and sometimes less. He also gets syringe fed butternut squash babyfood and chicken baby food sometimes.
At what age do you normally start reducing the protein? Not sure when I should start doing this because he is small. And at 4 months old is he considered a juvenile? When is he considered a sub adult? At what age should his diet be changed to 20% protein and 80% veg.
