I have been told many different things from many different pet stores.
E&L Pets told me to feed him 20 a week and didnt mention anything about a salad.
I have been told my a woman that owns her own personal pet store. She only has reptiles and her beardies looked very healthy and showed all signs of being alert and happy. She also preceded to tell me that I was over feeding my beardie and he only needs 12 crix and about 4 mealworms a week with a fresh salad everyday. And to spray his salad with a vitamin/calcium mix. Oh, and no wax worms. They are a treat only.
I am hoping that bc the woman I spoke to today is not from a chain pet store and its her personal buisness... that she is telling me correct things.
For the past few months he has been receiving 15 crix a day with a fresh salad with baby food veggies on top. And he would also get about 5 mealworms every other day with his salad. The woman with the personal buisness said I was feeding him an "ungodly" amount and she is surprised he isn't sick and that I need to start feeding him only 12 crix per week immediately.
Any help? What should I feed my beardie? I am aware that there are alot of different opinions but I do not understand why it is so hard for everyone to be on the same page with feeding and care?! :?
