7 month old beardie diet?

[jleasure0614]

I've found so many different answers to this I figured I will just post a new discussion and see what happens.

My little guy is 7 months old. In the morning I give him some collard greens and a little kale, maybe throw in a green bean or two. I'll feed him a couple crickets in the morning but I think he's tiring of them... he's not into then like he used to be.

In the evening he will get more crickets offered, some BSFL and/or a few mealworms as a treat. The next day I replace any left over greens with fresh and start this process over.

At 7 months, is this okay? What should I change? Sometimes he won't eat crickets, other times he will eat 10+ at once. Also...I gave him a Hornworm yesterday and he LOVED it. How often can they be fed?

Thanks for helping this newbie!

superworms are a good staple, that's what I use, you can also try dubia roaches.

I recommend the dubias --- they are way more nutritious than crickets anyway -- please try those and see how it goes ---

There are so many answers and opinions on it because there is no right answer. We typically give guidelines, as a starting point. From there throughout the months you start to learn your dragon, and can deviate from the guidelines to what is best for your dragon.

That being said, the diet sounds fine to me. As long as its keeping him healthy and happy and growing, that's all you can ask for.
