I just got my beardie not too long ago. I have been feeding her a few different things, trying to add some variety. I feed her crickets daily (not a set amount- I just throw some in) I fed her kale at first as a staple food, but she didn't seem to like it so I switched to romaine. I just read that this was to be fed rarely. She loves ground up carrots, and my mom says she loves cucumbers.
I read squash was good for her. We have alot of zuchinni and squash in the garden.
How should I feed these to her?
Can I freeze them and serve them through winter?
How should I do this?
Also, I need to find a solution to the $10 trip to the petstore for crickets that hardly last a week. I was thinking of just spending the $20 and ordering online for tons of crickets so she can eat as many as she wants! Where could I order them?
I bought the zoo-med pellets, and she didn't seem interested. Can I somehow encourage her?
Pheonix worms?
And can I use crushed eggshells to dust her crickets or offer them on the side?
If anyone could throw in some extra tips it would be greatly appriciated.
Some extra info:
I am a little squeamish.
She is an adult beardie.
I haven't confirmed her sex, but the guy who had her before me said someone checked.
I dust her crickets, but I think they are outdated.vv :?
I'm on somewhat of a budget (I can spend money, but I'm not throwing down $100 all at once on my pet if I don't have to)
I gutload her crickets.
