My pet store is out of small crickets until wednesday the 12th and i am in a panic. My bearded dragon is a baby only 8.5"[before tail nip] and the large crickets are way too huge for him. They only have mealworms which are 1" and i heard they are too hard for babies, so even if i do cut em up tiny could he eat them?

what can i do? I'm really worried. he does eat greens and enjoys them and sweet potato n stuff, but he loves crickets, he eats 60-70 of them a day. no one in my area sells phoenix worms, im in canada and i dont know if anyone does next day/same day delivery and i am panicking!

what can i give him to tie him over?

We only have a pet smart and they only have an american site so they wont allow me to order them from there.

What part of Canada do you live in? Check if any local pet stores around you carry Horn Worms or Butterworms. Silks as well, though they can be hard to find. PM me, I might be able to help you!(I'm in canada as well, Vancouver to be specific)

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
