[QUOTE="karmakollector, post: 1917319, member: 101399"] Thanks for the feedback. Even before you mentioned anything about bugs, after posting this I realized I should take red coloring off the bug feeder list because it implies "do not feed"... perhaps a gradient of green to yellow is better, to imply "okay/occasional" vs "great/staple" I am very curious to read more about what makes dubia bad... most of what I have read sing their praises, and I was keeping a colony for a while (I was going to just let it die out, but they just... won't... die! It's been over a month now of no food or water) My new go-to feeder is BSFL (but I do occasionally do crickets and hornworms. No, I do not trust mealies or superworms, my girl is only 4 months. I did feed them to my adult dragon, but I wonder what the benefit of mealworms is, given their difficult digestion, other than being cheap and readily accessible?) But yes, I will modify the bug portion. I am STILL having people in some forums insisting that "no lettuce should ever be fed", all because of that blasted BeautifulDragons chart. That chart is their sole "sources cited" that they are basing all decisions off of. Despite reports by the CDC that leaf lettuce and romaine are MORE nutrient-dense than: collards, mustard greens, arugula, endive, dandelion greens, etc. (but the only one I recommend is Romaine because it has a good Ca:P ratio) [url=https://www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2014/13_0390.htm]https://www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2014/13_0390.htm[/url] [/QUOTE]
