Over the years I've always had to get bowls that bugs can't escape from but are to deep and make it hard for my beardied to get their bugs, which in turn causes them to stand in the bowl and let the bugs escape. So shallow bowl= happy beardie, escaped bugs and p.o.'ed girlfriend. Deep bowl= unhappy beardie, escaped bugs and p.o.'ed girlfriend. Solution? A hole saw!
Bowl deep enough that bugs don't escape, a hole on the ledge, countersunk bowl, everyone happy (well except the bugs 🐛 😉 lol). And I finally get some piece and quiet!!!!

I'm having a similar problem & I'm looking into getting an escape-proof feeder dish.
I had one for Skittles. (Disposable)

The basking side of my tank isn't getting up to the suggested 100degrees. Does that mean I need to get a new basking light?
does her poop look healthy?
In your perspective does my baby bearded dragon look healthy or unhealthy? Does she look bloated? she is active and eats very well also she is in her basking spot all day
