The bearded dragon is a cute but exotic pet! Many people are confused on what to feed their bd... :eek:
And make sure you don't feed anything that's larger than your dragon's eyes :shock:
And it is very important to feed alive/ fresh food which will give your dragon good nutrition and many other vitamins! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Here is a list on what to feed your bd:

Bugs:

- BSFL (Black Soldier FLy Larvae)

- Crickets
They may jump and go a little crazy and may carry parasites

- Juvia, discoid, red runners , and orange head roaches

- Locusts
They can jump very far so be careful :x

- Silk worms
They are a very healthy staple

- Wax worms
They contain fat which is good for underweight beardies

- Butter worms
They also contain fat

- Superworms
Very popular treat DO NOT FEED IN HIGH QUANTITIES

- Earthworms
Very uneasy to catch and good source of protein

- Hornworms
Very popular treat that is very high in fat and moisture

Greens are:

- Bok choy

- Collard greens

This isn't everything for feeding your bearded dragon, but however, it's a good list especially for starters. And PLEASE make sure you know what you are doing and if your bd is okay, Thanks for reading this post :wink:

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
