My Beardie wont eat crickets

OzzieBorealis · Jan 2, 2017

I have had my beardie for about a week and I have been feeding her crickets in a separate cage, only leaving her to eat for 10-15 minutes at a time. Recently I let her have a Meal worm and then cut some up to mix into kale. but today I put her in my feeder cage and he refused to eat crickets, she will still eat Meal Worms but I've read meal worms are bad for beardies. what should I do?

Try roaches! My dragon wasn't very enthusiastic about his food, although, like yours, he liked mealworms better than crickets; but he gobbles up roaches like they're candy. And,even better, roaches are better for him than crickets, according to what I've read here. I got mine at dubideli.com, but there are all kinds of dealers you can check out. Just do a search here for some.
