Baby beardie food help!

[oliviatulip7801]

I just got a baby bearded dragon, about six months old. I'm feeding small crickets and veggies. But would it be okay to feed wax worms?? Are the worms small enough for my beardie to eat?!

Only as occasional treats.

Better to keep with the crickets.
Other suitable feeders for a 6 month old are BSF maggots, silkworms (up to 2 inch long) , roaches and locusts.

If the feeder insect is soft and squishy you can give larger feeders (ie silkworms).
