Normal poop for hornworms/BSFL?

Just making sure this is ok I take the blame I got BSFL and fed both my beardies and also got hornworms. The hornworms arrived small so I didn't think 3 would hurt them but this is Ambers poop. Very watery and a bad smell that I'm guessing may be the BSFL because I didn't get them for her but she liked them so I gave her some. Also I'm guessing the green is from eating greens? She won't have any bugs for a few days till this stops and her poop looks better

You can feed as many bsfl as you want they are small but healthy. Hornworms are great also BUUUTTTT they are very hydrating so you can expect runny poops. they are also addictive, your dragons may start refusing other feeders if you give Hornworms to often.

I thought that was wax worms? Probably why she loved them so much now I feel bad I thought it was the texture and color (hornworms/waxworms) that drove them wild. Well I would think perhaps 1-2 a hornworms a week would be fine? Or even feeding with other feeders?

With the BSFL it can be a staple I'm just unsure if I give them to both beardies everyday they would stop eating salads?

A couple times a seek for hornworms is good, it will help keep them hydrated. Most folks here seem to recommend putting the bsfl on the salad to help lure beardies into eating the salad also.

I heard a few suggest that too about the BSFL and salads once Amber found out no more bugs today she ate her salad 😅

Seems I'll have to order more BSFL I only got 100 and they will eat every last one if I let them

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