    Hi all, my beardies woke from brumation about 2 Weeks ago, but neither have eaten greens or bugs yet.

    Keeping Phoenix worms 'fresh'?

    Hi all, I've ordered 1000 Phoenix worms (£10.50 inc. Postage!?) and wondered if anyone had any 'tricks' for slowing their development so they stay wormy for longer? They will need growing as they're only small, so I'm only growing about 200 at a time?

    Little Jubs

    Butternut squash

    Hi all, I'm looking for how to feed squashes, particularly butternut squash? My beardies will both eat any sort of leafy green, be it in their bowls, on the floor, or on my plate! But they wont eat any squashes? They'll eat a little pepper or carrot, so it probably isn't the colour, so maybe...
