I was browsing around on youtube and came across a few videos of bearded dragons being fed goldfish. I wasn't planning on giving mine any but I am very curious. Is feeding BD's goldfish good or bad for them? :?:
No. Not good. Do not give him goldfish or any fish.
Think about it. Where in his natural environment would a dragon come across a goldfish? The trick to keeping a healthy dragon is to try to duplicate and maintain his environment in the wild.
There are tons of video on YouTube that show some horrible habits with beardies. When in doubt, come here first and ask.

It honestly has nothing to do with they natural environment as in captivity they are fed many things not local to them (such as brown crix, dubia roaches, silks/hornworms, supers, and any other number of things). Their food in the wild mostly consists of locusts which in the US we typically can not offer.
