Eating Habits

[Nicodemous]

Hi all,
I have an odd question, Im not super concerned but I am curious...

I have two 7ish month old beardies,during their usual feeding time my female Shen-Ron will eat everything put in her viv till she is full,
my male Tamyas will eat 2-3 of any feeder I put in then wander off, then about an hour later he is scratching the glass and Ive figured out that he wants food. I now leave a dish with feeders in his viv so he can nibble during the day, and he does eat 2-3 feeders every hour or so.
They both get salad and pick at it during the day. I have tried only giving him feeders 2-3 times a day like Shen-Ron but he gets really cranky.


He is happy, healthy and more active then Shen-ron, so I'm really just curious if anyone else has or had beardies that eat like this??

They are the same age and Tamyas is the smaller of the 2

Love their coloring. That sure is a big size difference for being the same age. I have to ask, are they housed together or in view of each other from their tanks?

I actually bought Tamyas because he was half the size of the rest of the babys at the petstore,
we believe he is the runt of the clutch, and I love him!

They live in the same enclosure but with a partition in the center

The left side has changed a little since I took this pick
He has been eating like this for the last 2 months, I forgot to mention that,

They both refuse to eat out side the viv so Im swapping the sand for shelf liner soon,

Hi all, me again

Just figured I'd update a little, Tamyas still eats the same way (I know its been less then a week since I asked about this but its frustrating)Does anyone have any ideas to try with him or should I just leave the food dish in his tank with feeders in it??
Im just kinda confuzled right now and need to ask. Thanks for listening, any tips could be useful!

Thank you for your time
