Thanks!
Isn't it funny just how big that belly can stretch? :lol:

Oh i laugh so hard with him He gets such a big belly then i give him a bath after he eats and he swells all up XD. Poor thing i wonder some times if he gets tummy akes

 

[fresnowitte]

It's normal for them to turn into floatation devices :lol: when in the bath when they are little. I remember the first time Zak-n-Wheezie did that it scared :shock: the heck out of me. :lol:

My youngest permanent resident beardie is a chow-hound too. Her belly gets huge. :shock: It's amazing how big one little beardie can poop. :lol:

As long as he's basking after eating he shouldn't get a belly ache from eating so much. :wink: I know with Roux I have to cut off feedings about 2 or more hours before lights out so she can digest all the food that she's already consumed before bed-time.

Love beardies with good appetites! :mrgreen:
Is he a good salad eater too?

 

[articwolfgirl]

actually no he dosnt care much for salad greens I keep trying turnip greens but he just wont touch them he took two baby chunks of apricot out my hand last night I was like awwwwwwww.

and yeah its kinda funny when he pushes off the wet rag in the water and he just floats like a bobber in the water.

do u have any sujestions about him eating greens? I mean when i first got him he was 6 inches . Ive had him for two weeks and now hes 7.3-7.4 eat meal worms, phioenix worms, and crickets like crazy.

 

[fresnowitte]

I'd take it very slow on the mealworms they don't really have much nutrition and the chitins/outershell is rather rough on the digestive track. Not actually recommended for beardies.

I place the salads in the viv right as they are warming up in the morning when they will be most hungry. Then I don't offer bugs until an hour or so later...usually they will get hungry before they get the bugs so they will eat the salad. You could offer a few bites by hand they will usually take a couple of bites that way. In no time he will acquire the taste for them if you can get a bite or two down everyday. Also misting the greens will entice them to eat them or suck the water off them...eventually he will take a bite.

Not sure what all you offer in a salad but there should be a couple of dark green leafy veggies and I like to add a mixture of other veggies too. Sometimes color will attract them to it also smell so bright smelly fruits will draw their attention.

My beardies and the babies in the house all love mustard greens, butternut and yellow squash is a big hit, fresh pumpkin when you can get it, and melons of all kinds.
