I agree so much guys. It made me really aggravated when she expressed she wanted one and her ridiculous view of feeding, and even more so when she carried out this poor plan. I'll show her all these responses so she'll see that it's just not one person (me) who "thinks" this way. Thanks guys!

Yeah I know guys :? so I just don't know what to suggest that's why I was wondering if there was a complete mash, jello-like, pellets, idk substance she can make from scratch that will be a complete substitute for insects. She already has the thing, and she's not gonna get rid of it so idk...

So my friend insisted getting a bearded dragon yet decides shes NOT going to do insects. She came to me for all the other help since I own bearded dragons, but refuses to do the insect thing as I said as they freak her out. I tried explaining the NEED for them, and all the pros/cons of all the...

I'm confused at what my female dragon is trying to do for the past 1-2 months. She keeps going away from her basking spots, and hiding under the paper towels (what I have as substrate for now till I build a custom "false rock" enclosure). I did have her with a male, but took it as a possible...

How I got my dragons to eat was constantly offering the green to them by hand. Eventually they took it, sometimes not. I would also take a bit of leaf and FINELY shred it, and mix it in with their worms when it came to that feeding they would sometimes accidentally bite some greens as the...

My 2 dragons went NUTS for hornworms. So much in fact that after the first few days of introducing them they would immediately jump off their basking rock and run towards the glass when I would pick up the containers from ACROSS the room lol. I mean they chow down on fly larvae, but nothing as...

When I had crickets I used fish flakes for gutloading, but you can also by "cricket food" from various venders for example Ghann's (online) when I used to deal with crickets as a staple. Make sure to have a moisture source, no actual water as they'll drown in it. Like a sponge, fruit, or...

#1 For those who have bred them, how would you rate your experience (mainly difficulty, and continuing a colony) with them? #2 I'm getting mixed views on searches on whether they can be a staple or not so I'd like an answer to this for sure. #3 What IS the artificial silk worm chow? Whats so...

Yes they are (there's a topic around here on them, I even have a thread on the review of them if you search). I'd recommend still dusting them with calcium/multi-vitamin. Hope that helps.

I know you're suppose to clean enclosure and items inside with a mixture of (1 part to 10 right?) bleach and water, and then rinse till you can't smell the bleach anymore. Well what about large enclosures? I have a 40 gallon breeder aquarium, and even though I myself can pick it up and handle...

So I wanted to share my experience of Great Lake Hornworm (http://www.greatlakeshornworm.com/) and the hornworms I ordered from them. I initially ordered 50 eggs from them. He forgot the lids for cups, but sent out some new ones asap (in the meantime I did what they recommend and put paper...

Glad to hear I'm not the only one enjoying them (well my beardies...lol)! I'll try to remember to take a picture with a penny for size reference. They are smaller compared to the Repiworms I was using before, but for the price it's still cheaper to feed more. Plus it works out great for small...

Yes feeding regular "maggots" to beardies is bad since you don't know what exactly they have eaten and are probably on rotten flesh, BUT I do not know of any Insect retailer that sells such a thing. As all the types of fly larvae are fed on different things. Grubco I believe is on fish, and...

I'll have to try the greens thing when they get bigger. I think they are moving so slow is because the temperature in the room they are in is about 70. Also the 3 lids came in yesterday. They have plenty of holes in the plastic, and what appears to be some type of white breathable fiberglass...

Let me know if you do! The only complaint I have is trying to clear away any of the wheat bran when removing them from the container as I don't want to waste multi/calcium dust on the wheat bran. So far my method has to use an old sifter I had when I used sand, and it doesn't sift the wheat...
