Hi! Babies need to be fed fresh veggies daily. (They may not always eat them at first, but always offer them). There is a list of veggies on beautifuldragons.com. Some good staples are mustard greens, turnip greens, collared greens and butternut squash. My dragon likes mustard greens best at this time. But, loved butternut squash when he was smaller. Also, they need live insects. How big are your babies? Insects should be as small as the space between their eyes. Pinhead crickets may be a good start. Live feeders need to be dusted with calcium 5 x's a week. And a multivitamin 2 x's a week. They should be fed as many as they can in eat in 10-15 min. Don't leave uneaten crickets in their tank. They will bite your babies. Another good feeder are calci worms. (Repti/Phoenix worms are the same thing). These can be left in the tank. They are pretty small. Wax worms, horn worms, and butter worms can be fed as well. Superworms can be fed when your babies are bigger. Oh, and Dubia roaches. Unless you live in canada or Florida. Some people swear by Dubia's. They creep me out! Lol! Hope this helps!
