[QUOTE="kingofnobbys, post: 1898780, member: 81934"] This why I tell people here and elsewhere , a rubbish diet for your feeder insects will produce rubbish feeder insects . Feed the veg and greens you want your dragon to eat to your feeder insects if you want them to be the best food your dragon can eat. Only processed foods I give my insects are dry adult bearded pellets ==> crickets, woodies, superworms, mealworms and silkworm chow when I'm out of fresh mulberry leaves for the silkworms. I give mealworms occasionally to my hatchlings as treats, especially the pupae and beetles (while they are still soft bodied) the hatchlings always love them, Similar with superworms for my adults (once over 12" long) . My mealworms are kept on bed of wheatbran and oatbran , with bearded dragon pellets added. I also give them fresh carrot and buk choi whites . I principally have these as feeders for my skinks but the dragons get them too. Would I use them as a staple for my pet lizards (skinks or dragons) ? NO. But in moderation as treats , they are fine .
