I know that supers are not necessarily an ideal staple, but as of late with the weather I am unable to get crickets (everything is either DOA or on backorder or suppliers won't ship).
Due to that Lowan has been eating superworms as a staple for the past month, and probably will be eating them this month as well, though hopefully by April everything will be ok cricket-wise.
I have been offering 5-10 superworms a day. He seems to be in good shape and is 6.5 months old, 260 grams and 17 inches long.
I know the limit for adult dragons is 30-35 a week, but he's still technically a juvenile (though a big boy!). He also has a bowl of Zoo-med juvie bearded pellets and gets his greens nearly every day.
I was wondering what, if offering juvie beardies a staple of superworms, what the daily amount of worms would be?
They can't be a staple for a growing dragon. 5-6 per day/35 per week isn't the max for an adult, it's the max for any age'd dragon. Anymore than that is just too much fat in the diet.
You can feed 5 or 6 per day, but that won't meet the protein requirements of your growing dragon. You will need to offer other feeders alongside the superworms.
