She is a very skinny dragon not trying to be mean but she is kind of skinny though.

Lol it's ok. He seems normal to me but I have nothing to compare him to. It's my first one. He's adjusting to everything still. I think I"m going to get him some bigger meal worms to eat.

Hello & Welcome to BD.org!
And.......
Congratulations on the New Beardie!

Here's a couple of links one is a color coded chart with nutritional values to some beardie foods;

And this one has some values to live feeders;

You really don't want to feed him mealworms but Super worms would be okay. :wink:
The meal worms don't have much food value and the chitins (outer shell can clog up their systems) can cause impaction.

Don't worry I'm sure you will have him fattened up in no time. :wink:
