Hi!

My beardie is around 15 months old. He eats salad and veggies everyday and sometimes twice a day. We are currently still feeding him Dubia roaches everyday. I know when they get older they are supposed to eat more salad and bugs get cut down. Should I be cutting his bug feeding down now? If so, how many should he be having and how many times a week? Thanks!!!

Please drop to 2-3 times per week - feed as many as he will eat -- what kind of UVB are you using please this will determine the calcium hes getting

We have a T5 10.0 uvb long fixture
Ok so dust the insects one time a week w/ calcium D3 the other two days calcium w/ out D3 NO phosphorus -- make sure your UVB is properly placed and distanced for the screen on the tank --

Sir Henry the dragon
Looking for his dragon girl
Ventures out in to the wide world
His hopes are up but as you can see
There is no dragon girl for Sir Henry
A light bulb goes off and he takes mom aside
Could you perchance get me a mail order bride ?
