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

I have questions about bubbles on our bearded dragons eye.

So he’s gotten bubbles on his eye. We wiped them off and it’s only been twice in the last few weeks. Should we be concerned? No coughing or congestion. He’s very hungry and sleeps well. He’s 8-9 month range. His humidity is 30-40 day time and as high as 50-55 at night to early morning.
Should we be concerned?

Currently trying not to stress over my anemic dragon....she is being treated, but I don't agree with her treatment plan and have been seeking out a second opinion from another vet. If anyone else has dealt with anemia, please let me know how it was resolved. I am losing sleep over this :cry:
Another post lol. My beardie does not like enclosures. Her tank is the kids room and she has created a nesting/bed spot in the corner. She will cuddle with my son but she know when the lights are out and the kids go to sleep, she literally goes to her bed like she is our 3rd baby. I love her. And to think, I never wanted a beardie lol
