hi just bought my bearded dragon its 10 weeks and not sure weather its a male or a female yet, its been put in quite a big tank. does anyway know what happens if u dont feed them crickets please
hey! welcome to the forums! does your bd have a name? it doesnt really matter if you dont feed it crix, you just have to feed it some other sort of feeder bug, like superworms < i use those> and dont forget to feed 'em tons of greens!

If your beardie is only 10 weeks old, I would not feed superworms just yet. You usually have to wait until they are at least 15-16 inches long to make sure that they can digest the superworms well and there is less risk of impaction.
My beardie hates crickets so I feed him silkworms (the best, most nutritional staple), phoenix worms, butterworms, small hornworms. Make sure you dust your worms with calcium about 5 times/week and vitamins 2 times/week. Phoenix worms and butterworms don't need to be dusted with calcium as they have enough calcium in their bodies.
