Hi there!
I have come to quite a bad situation...
Where I live (Malta, Europe), the access for good feeders is very slim. No locust, roaches, phoenix worms, reptiroms,

silkworms, hornworms and currently not even proper sized crickets...
What I have at the moment are is a juvenile dragon of 130 G, around 12 inches long... and all I have are over sized
crickets (quite a lot larger than space between the head), mealworms and superworms. I have tried to feed the over sized
crickets instead of these types of worms - since I guess they are anyhow better and less likely to cause impactation. It
will be a few days until the pet store gets new small crickets - and now my dragon does not seem even a little interested
in the large crickets either anymore... I guess they have bitten her.
Simple question: What to feed her with during the time that I get proper sized crickets?... She runs after superworms but I
do not want to feed too many since the risk of impactation. She is well hydrated, temps are correct and basically
everything is correct except UVB which is reptiglo 10.0 compact (yes I have already ordered reptisun tube, easy now).
Thanks!

Ricks ship to Europe :)
Wooho! He ships to Malta!
Delivery? 17GBP/20 EUR flat. :shock:
well well up to 2 KG so it is totally fine.

Regarding cutting the crickets... yeah I will try that. Although today, she is not even interested in the superworms which she usually runs for. She is still quite shy, and I just do not get her. It is like she would brumate... I fed her around 5-6 superworms and 1 cricket (da**!! I left the other big one to jump around in my apartment, just remembered now LOL).
Anyhow her stool is very strange, will upload a photo of it later, but her weight is exactly the same or slightly more every week.
will keep you updated.
And Thank you! :wink:

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!
