Hornworms

Soo I went to feed my beardie and I noticed that one of her hornworms turned into pupa. My father and I are trying to figure out what we should do with it. Does anyone know if the moth will lay eggs on its own or just end up dying? We are unsure what to do with it but if someone could help us it'd be great!

You can also feed the moth if your dragon is big enough.
I don't think the moths reproduce on their own. I usually just let them go.

My beardies about 11 months old right now, would it be ok for her to eat? I don't want her to end up choking on it wether it's a pupa or moth.

The pupa is hard, i probably wouldn't feed her that, the month is soft bodied that should be ok

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
