Hello everyone,
Yesterday I went to the reptile expo in Long Island. what a treat! Anyway the only problem is that I came out of there a littie confused and need your expertise....I have a 7inch long beardie and I have been feeding him greens, and crickets. He eats about 25 small crickets a day. Last week I gave him one fax worm. I wanted to upgrade him to the large crickets (I can't find medium size crickets in NYC, figures) but not sure I should. At the expo I was told I could give him a superworm every other day...I gave him a superworm and he ate it, but he had to stop for a second or two after each bite. I also bought some phoenix worms and he ate those in a second. I want to make sure that I am feeding him enough and that the food is appropriate for him. I also want to know if he is eating enough for his size? Please help. Thanks. Verena
