bearded dragon suddenly stopped eating

[zackbeardieowner]

i have a baby beardie and when i was feeding it he ate 33 worms then didn't eat his last one the 34th one is this because something happened or he's full ???

 

[zackbeardieowner]

any replies would be appreciated as I'm a bit worried

Is this thread serious, or are you just another troll among us?

Probably just full, but I still fail to see the point of this thread... Regardless, he'll be fine.

 

[zackbeardieowner]

yes I'm serious what could it be remember I'm new and don't know if this is a beginning of a sickness or something ?

He's just full, don't force food to your Bearded Dragon, worms are more filling than just crickets. Let him eat for 10-15 minutes in a sitting, when he walks away, then he's done.

He's just full. Don't worry! It's like you not eating the last few fries in your happy meal or something.

 

[zackbeardieowner]

Hahahaha because I read somewhere they wOnt stop eating so they store food

 

[BeardieMommy3991]

They stop eating when their little bellies are full. :3

 

[zackbeardieowner]

Ohhhhhh how cute how old is yours ?

 

[BeardieMommy3991]

Mines nearly the same age

33 worms iS alot max is 3 and only gets 5 a day because they are reqally fattening

What kind of worms are you feeding? Are you also feeding crickets? And, what greens?

Mine is 12 weeks and will def stop when she has had enough! Sometimes she will have 5 crickets in one sitting, the most she has eaten is 60! I don't time it with mine, mainly because I have to sit there and hand feed her one at a time. lol :roll: She will go from full on feeding frenzy one second to nothing. I was told worms aren't suggested for them this age? Is that wrong? I would love to get her worms, seems easier than chasing crickets around!
