Thanks for all the great info! It sounds like the Dubias are not too hard to keep and feed. I was feeling pretty intimidated by the whole idea, but all your feedback is helping quite a lot. I have some Phoenix worms coming for him, and I’m going to order the Dubias tonight. TY ?
Hi! Thanks for the info on the worms. I’ll definitely open them outside if I’ve had them for a while, ewww! I actually found a pet store that had some Dubias this morning. They were really expensive, but I got some to see how Panini would like them. He went completely bonkers for them! He ate...

Hi,
I’m one of those new owners of a beardie that thought I did all the right research, only to find we’ve gotten many things wrong. My son has wanted a beardie for many years and we finally decided it was time to get one for him. He’s 13 and very responsible and had saved enough money to buy...
