I´m looking into making my own beardie-snacks
Not planned for daily feeding, but for those occations where I´m not able to give it live insects.
My plan is to use powdered crickets (cricket-flour) dandelion greens +++
I was thinking about adding some water and gelatin, molde it to a thin plate and cut it into strings resembling small worms.
I see (Norwegian brand gelatin) that it contains over 85% animal based protein, and otherwise has nutrition components that looks fairly good for beardies.
If it's processed and contains gelatin or other fillers , don't give it.
"Bites", "Snacks" are not by any measure worth giving even as snacks, keep to live insects and fresh greens and veg. In a tight spot BugPie and VegeBurger are OK.
I was not planning on using my pet for research
I was more hoping that anyone knew about scientific studies or similar that could support or disregard this as a good idéa
In my head it sounds reasonable.. but that does absolutely not mean it IS
I´m allways in doubt..
But if everybody took to that approach, we would not have any bearded dragons in our homes at all.. or any other pets for that sake ?
Therefore my approach has allways been: If there´s science behind it, use it
