I just got my first beardie almost a week ago. I'm just not sure about feeding/watering. She is about 6in long and I feed her about 3 times a day. I always have greens and carrots available for her at all time. I'm not really sure if she is eating them. It looks like she might be eating some of the greens. I also feed her about 5-6 crickets per feeding. Sometimes she finishes them off and sometimes she leaves one or two. I have been doing some research and I've read some things that say she should only have 3-5 crickets a feeding 2-3 times a day and this website where I see they can eat up to 100 a day and to let her eat as much as she wants in a 10-15min period. I just want to make sure I am taking care of her right. I also spray her crickets with a calcium spray her first feeding in the morning. I am at work and don't have it on hand to say what it is exactly. Is there anything else I should be doing? As for water, how much should she be drinking? I have a bowl of water in her tank at all times but I don't think she is drinking from it. I mist her about 3-4 times a day. Is that too much or not enough? Like I said I am just worried if she is getting all that she needs. I am already extremely attached to her. She is just soo adorable, I would hate for her to get sick because I am doing something wrong. Any advise would be great!!!
