    Do not feed your BD every day....

    Many owners overfeed-I see too many fat beardies. 1 or 2 days of fasting is good. In the wild they have days of not eating.I am referring to adult dragons,baby and juvenile dragons need daily food although a day off is fine.Lets keep our dragons healthy not fat!
