So I have been trying multiple different feeders for my beardie Sunny and none of them have worked out. I mainly did crickets but they smell and die so fast no matter what I do. I tried getting them in bulk, getting them from different places, different keepers, different foods, and they still die! I made a plan to try and breed/buy dubias, but quickly realized that is not an option because they are illegal in my state . I tried other types of roaches but it got expensive (as did crickets) because they were harder to find and breed. I didn't know what do do because Sunny seems underweight and he needs more live food. So... I kind of made a rational decision and bought 2,000 mealworms. I looked it up and there was mixed information so I wasn't sure what to do. I plan on feeding him these (they are small and still have soft outer-skeletons) along with greens and other staple veggies. I just wanted to make sure that this will not cause harm to him, (I probably should've done this before buying 2,000 insects)! I know they are high in fat and protein, but as he is kind of skinny I think that is what he needs. I wont be feeding him these daily anyways because he is almost two years old and I am trying (and failing) to get him to eat way more veggies. Please help I love him so much and don't want to make him sick.
