    Not digesting Superworms properly?

    My beardie, Dexter is 1 1/2 and I've just started feeding him superworms in addition to crickets and greens. He LOVES them! I dont know how many he would eat if I let him eat to his hearts content, but last week at his first feeding he ate 20 and seemed to have no problems. I've been giving...

    tote size for dubia breeding colony

    I'll be receiving 200 dubia soon. I have a 22 gallon tote that I plan to use, but I'm thinking that may be too small. Should I put them in two tubs right from the beginning or wait a bit and divide them? I guess my question is, how many dubia should be kept together in one tub.

    How is a fecal done?

    I would like to make an appointment for Dexter for a routine check up and fecal. This seems like a silly question to ask, :oops: but for a fecal, do you take a poop with you to the vet or do they somehow extract some there? If I take it with me, how fresh does it have to be? I know with cats...

    Jicama (Yambean)?

    Does anyone know if Jicama (aka Yambean) is safe for beardies? I had some on a salad recently and enjoyed it so I bought some to add to my salad at home. I like to give dexter little bits of different veggies so he acquires a taste for new things but Jicama is not listed on the beautiful...
