I have a juvenile bearded dragon and I feed it about 60 crickets a day. Is it to much? I've read you have to give them 2 feedings a day but I can only do one big feeding

mine used to eat 60 large crix a day so i understand and i have turned to this forum before. its not exactly "average" but its not a bad thing. its healthy that he eats that much. I also do 1 large feeding a day even though 2 or 3 is recomended. i just leave fresh greens for him through the day than 1 live feeding 4 hours before lights out.

We did this with our Bindy: As a baby she got two daily feedings, as much as she would eat in 10-15 minutes. Now, she is about 10-11 months old, and gets salad every day, and one large feeding of bugs to start her morning. Typically the ratio should be 80% bugs, 20% veg as babes, and swap as adults to 20% bugs, 80% veg.. so we're trying to make that transition smooth as she hits adulthood. :)

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!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
