Between the Eyes

[pepatt]

Sorry if this is repetitive, but I tried searching and can't find a specific answer.

How long does the "space between the eyes" rule apply? Is there an age when they can just eat whatever they feel like chasing?

I ask because I see the local pet shop owner feed his adult beardies adult roaches all the time and they are WAY bigger than the space between the beardie's eyes!

Porter is now about 14" long (nose to tail) and can easily handle large crickets now.
When is it OK to give him the big food?

I think that rule always applys.

I agree. It is not worth risking impaction.

For me that rule will always apply.
You know what you are feeding them is safe and thats fine for me and fine for my monsters.

I believe the only time when the rule does not apply is in regards to leafy greens.

Hope you get some more knowledgable answers ^_^
