over my many years I have had many reptile species, lizards, snakes which included California Sidewinders and other rattle snakes, all of which were Native to the US. Being from California I spent a lot of time in the Mojave Desert collecting critters, collecting blood samples for parasites, bacteria, fungi and temperature reading at different time of the day.
This bearded dragon (he or she is my first, about 9" long. 2-3 months?
All creatures are similar to humans, we all have different personalities, likes and dis-likes. My dragon does not like to eat live (moving crickets) so I stun them so he/she will eat them. I have found however, that my dragon really prefers dead crickets and is partial to greens. So, with this being said I bought a bag of Zilla Reptile Munchies Omnivore Mix and there was no hesitation gobbling it up. I also bought a container of Fluker's Freeze Dried Crickets and add a few to the rest of the mix. The dragon is very happy. I also add a sprinkle of REP-CAL Phosphorus free Calcium with VIT.D3.
My Grand kids have had dragons since they were knee high to a grasshopper.
As far as greens, I dry them out add to the mixture, add water as required. I am I 100% sure that my dragon is getting everything that is required for healthy long life.
