How do your dubias keep getting out? I have had a colony for 2 years and have never seen an escapee!

crickets , but your parents would need to visit a pet shop each week to buy enough to feed your beardie and will need to deal with dead crickets and gutloading them, they might be more inclined to have them in the house than roaches.
Superworms but as feeder for only 2 or 3 days a week, they are no fuss and last months without needing more than some carrot and the bran bedding they are in.
Silkworm chow sausages = cooked silkworm chow wrapped in gladwrap while still hot and soft - before it sets .usmcfamily":awzxjbe7 said:kingofnobbys":awzxjbe7 said:II'd suggest silkworms & preprepared silkworm chow (that you've cook up enough for 3 weeks and make it into chow sausages wrapped in gladwrap - set in fridge and simply cut off a piece each day and squash it nice and thin leaflike to feed them .....would be a good option

Dehydration can cause them to lose appetite sometimes. Try dripping water on his snout....use a small spray bottle, eyedropper or syringe. Drip, stop, repeat. As an appetite stimulant, try raw honey mixed with water. You have to warm the water slightly to mix in the honey....or try a bit of fruit juice [ unsweetened, natural but not citrus ] as well if he won't drink. Make a human grade smoothie with a varity of greens [ whatever you have ] and some fruits...blueberries, etc and a bit of honey again. You should also get some Oxbow critical care formula from your vet or online. And remember, some dragons go through a spell of not eating when they are near adult size [ though he's going to grow more ] and it's not an emergency like it is with a baby dragon. And finally [ or firstly even ] get a fecal test done to check for parasites.
And yes, Phoenix worms are bsfl.
