My beardie is somewhere around 9 months old and I’ve had for a little over 6 months. I always see things about how bad mealworms are for them and the impaction they can cause but in the entirety of owning him I’ve never had a single problem with them. I feed him the Flukers canned mealworms as an “emergency” protein since the closest pet store is about 20 minutes away and I can’t drive out there all the time. He has never had any issues with impaction and goes absolutely crazy for them. He even recognizes the sound of the lid opening I’m just kind of confused and would like some different inputs or suggestions. My vet said it was perfectly fine as long as they weren’t too big and didn’t cause impaction but I’ve also had some people say I was a horrible owner for letting him eat them so I’m just curious if I actually am doing something bad.
