I know that everyone in the dragon world raves about how hornworms are a favorite treat for beardies, but in the 3 months I’ve had my dragon Gus he’s never once shown any interest in eating them. He’ll eat dubias and BSFL and if I give him a Superworm he goes crazy trying to get it. Is there any way I could convince him to try a hornworm? I’ve tried smaller ones which last all of a few days before they are massive. Are there any other type of beardie treats that I can give him?
While they are a popular treat, not all dragons go nuts for them. Another example of their individuality :lol: Silk worms might work out as a good treat. They don't get nearly as big as hornworms but are a nice healthy soft treat for them. They tend to be seasonal, so if you can't find them try looking again in a month or two. I've had good luck ordering from Coastal Silkworms.
