big hornworms young beardie

[clossboss]

dude is about 14.5 inches and i got some hornworms for him offline and 2 of them are probably 4 inches long at least...is it ok to feed him the huge worms? i gave him one and it was gruesome to watch.....just wanted to make sure he isnt going to choke or impact from them.

I would say that 4inches is too large for your dragon especially since the dragon is still under 16+ inches in length. My full grown dragons have trouble with 3+ inch hornworms sometimes.

i just fed boss a 4 inch horn worm and he is 16 inches. he loved it but its messy and from my experience i might go smaller next time

ya i dont know what im going to do with these 2 huge worms i have....dude is almost 15 inches...i just ordered a variety pack offline to try out different feeders for my boys....all the silkworms i got were in a big ball and none of them moved so i assumed they were dead and didnt even use any of them...that part was a waste and i will never get silks again....but i think reptiworms are what im gonna start ordering, eventually going to start a dubia colony.
