Well, i got my first bearded dragon today (named him Buddha) and i have everything set up, and i bought his food.
But when i got the crickets i realised, i'm absolutely terrified of them! they look disgusting, and i know they bite, so i wont touch them xD
And he never ate the ones i managed to shake out of the box, and i was too frightened to take them back out, so they're trapped in an upside down tub in his Viv xD
They jump all over the place, and they are just.. so ugly!
What can i do?
Can i just feed him off worms? (they seem to be less frightening)
Can i buy some kind of, tweezers? or do i just have to man up and start holding the things? >.<
Thanks in advance guys!
Chris.
Edit: one climbed on his foot, and the way he kicked it off, it looked like it bit him!
can they seriously harm my beardie? he's about 17 weeks old, if i remember correctly
