7 month old feeding.

[Izzythedragon03]

Hi everyone,

I am new here. I have my dragon Izzy. I had her since she was 6 weeks old & she's now 7 months old. I feed her 60 locust a day & she has some vegetables but she not overly keen on her greens. I am thinking bc she 7 months now, do I reduce her locust & start trying harder with giving her different greens & fruit, like start the transition now before she becomes a adult or is she still young & I carry on giving her 60 crickets a day in 2 sittings like I been doing? TIA.

At 60 locusts per day she'll eat you out of house and home soon :lol: They do have incredible appetites as they are growing, but don't worry - that will drop off quite a bit as she approaches full size. Her appetite should start to slow down naturally, so I'd probably look for cues of that before cutting back too much. It is always good to offer a nice variety of veges in a salad every day though, even if they go ignored. I'd keep that up and maybe try hand feeding them a bit since adding some movement to the salads can help grab their interest. I wouldn't worry about it too much yet though.
