You were correct in saying she gave you bad info!
Pet stores offer the cheapest, least beneficial, most abundant feeder they can,....the mealworm?? Many feed their dragons from a jar they carry on the shelves!! Fresh greens are unheard of??? Good luck establishing healthy eating habits for your dragon after PetSmart or PetCo involved their loving expertise?? Their inadequate UVB lighting and heat offered their dragons makes me angry! It baffles me that animals are allowed to be treated so inadequately and in plain sight??? Many people just don't know??......if they knew proper husbandry and care,....they'd never would have entered that pet store in the first place! I cannot support big box pet Stores!! I love small, family owned pet shops that care!
I have no idea what mealworms are for but they have no business near my dragons?? Since I must go through the same motions and efforts to feed my dragons,....why not hold a Dubia or Superworm to my dragon's mouth rather than a mealworm??? A treat is a hornworm!! I have dragons from 6 inches to 20 inches and all benefit from the appropriate sized, traditionally healthier live feeder insects for which the mealworm does not qualify!
