I was recently told they might be too fatty and should only be used on occasions. Is it okay to feed primarily superworms? He is really thin and Im trying to put some weight on him anyways.

How old is your dragon?

I use superworms as staples but only for adults and they are severely limited.

Your goal shouldn't be to add weight to your dragon. Adding weight doesn't equal adding health. Your goal should be having a healthy dragon. If your dragon is currently underweight or sickly looking then you should be making sure your husbandry is proper and that you're feeding a heavy varied diet.

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
