Omg...please tell my my beardie will be okay

So I was feeding my beardie baby super worms, he is about 10 inches long (don't know exact age, I think 10 weeks). O found a gigantic 3 to 4 inch fat super worm in the container. I have never seen one that size. I set him aside for my worm farm and then my lil guy jumped off of me, got the huge super worm and pretty much swallowed him whole. I don't even feed him things half the size of that worm!!! This was his 3rd meal and he already had about 20 medium Phoenix worms and 10 or more baby to small super worms. I am really worried!

Heya, he should be okay, as long as his temperatures are fine and he poops soon he should have an issue you can try giving him water with a dropper to make sure he has enogh water, and if he hasnt pooped in his average time frame try a bit of apple sauce and veg oil whichshould help him along x

I agree. One shouldn't cause much issue but I'd keep him on softer foods for a bit and offer plenty of water to keep him well hydrated. If it doesn't pass through or he acts like he's stopped up after a few days start in with the baby food applesauce or pumpkin and maybe a couple of drops of olive oil to help things through.

At his age/size I suggest keeping him on softer worms in general. Black soldier fly larvae (phoenix worms) are a great option for them as are silk worms in addition to crickets and roaches. The supers are OK for adults but even then I only offer them as a treat because they're somewhat high in fat and aren't all that nutritious compared to other options available.
