Thanks a lot! The idea that "correct weight is a subjective number" is very reassuring...and I guess this is also what makes feeding and weight a special challenge since what's fine and healthy for one beardie may not be fine and healthy for another. I'm glad, though, that I seem to be more on...

Groggyfroggie, thank you for your kind and helpful response. We lost our first beardie at the age of two, to a sudden illness, so I'm sensitive (paranoid?) when it comes to health-related issues with Yogi. :)

The only other thing I can think of, in terms of his intake, is that I've been dusting his greens with powdery bee pollen once or twice a week. I've been doing this for well over a year, and the bee pollen is what at first got him to eat his greens when he was younger, though it isn't really...

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!
