Hello,
That normally doesn't happen but there have been a few on here who have had their dragons
eat a stink bug. I don't believe they are very toxic but certainly can't taste good. I would try to
detoxify her a little bit though. Use some parsley, cliantro, mint, oregano & basil blended into a
paste or liquid slurry to help detoxify her system.
Let us know how she is doing.

She is doing well. She has since gone back to sleep but did eat some blueberries and dandelion greens and basked the day after eating the stinkbug. The weather here is still going back and fourth from cold to warm so I'm not sure if She ready to fully wake up yet.
Hello,
That is good to hear! I figured that it should pass but I am guessing she most likely wont
eat another one though.
At least she did eat some greens & blueberries so it sounds like she is feeling perfectly fine
& doesn't have an upset system then. A lot of them are starting to come out of their brumation
phases now.
