Yeah, I had look at that food sheet before, but it's layout is so confusing to me lol. It's overwhelming to me, if you know what I mean.here's a great list for food. ignore what it says about kale. it has been found to be a great staple green and this page hasn't been updated for that. Nutrition Content
in our house for greens we rotate through kale, mustard greens, collards, watercress, and all time favorite dandelion greens. then zucchini, various color bell pepper, sweet potato, and occasionally raspberries or blueberries. topped off with about 1/4 tsp bee pollen granules (he hates powders). whatever salad is left at the end of the day gets fed to the roaches.
They never escaped, worms themselves. I kept them in cricket tub, the ones you get at a pet store. Worms changed into flies, and these escaped :/ I put them once in the fridge, then read they should not be put in one since it will kill them. I take them out, they go back alive when they got warm.Yes BSFL can be stored in the fridge. I’ve had an escape situation as well, those little worms ended up everywhere in my house. Advice: if you decide to keep the worms in something like a critter keeper, MAKE SURE the gaps on the lid are sealed off, only leave a couple tiny holes for air. Otherwise they can and will crawl out…
If you’re ordering 1000-2000 dubia roaches make sure get a large bin to put them in! Set up a good dubia colony can really save you money
I'm scared about thatYou will find out fairly fast beardies are picky eaters, they will have some food they will devour and others you couldn't get them to no matter what ya do. Or you might get lucky and get one that eats anything.
Yeah just make sure they’re not bigger than the space of between beardies eyes.Are large calci worms fine for small beardies? Found a pack of 1000 of them for £13.95.
You can just wash it then put it in the sun until it dries, then rip off some parts that look moldy or whatever. That’s how I prepare my decor at least.Also, how to prepare cork bark? My friend said she just puts it in her leopard's tank, and that most people/sellers sterilise before packing it. The thing is, those pieces are tad too big for boiling. My oven is not working, and wood would catch on fire while baking.
I definitely know what you mean haha! Just start with one or two types of veggies, those “staple” ones like endive/escarole mustard greens or collard greens. Then you can explore other options one at a time.Yeah, I had look at that food sheet before, but it's layout is so confusing to me lol. It's overwhelming to me, if you know what I mean.
Yeah, I heard they need variety if not mixes daily of their food.
Arcadia Earth Pro A contains bee pollen. It's hard to overdose (true), and contains all vitamins needed. I used it on my gecko for 1 year.
Awesome, thank you!Yeah just make sure they’re not bigger than the space of between beardies eyes.

What I did as a new beardie parent was writing down greens he can eat on a list, then just go to grocery store, stroll down the aisles, find a couple veggies to bring home with. You’ll formulate your own menu for beardie over time, don’t worry
If you scroll through this thread there are lots of info about feeding bearded dragons. Errors in widespread nutrition guides for beardies | Page 2 | Dietary Needs | Bearded Dragon .org At the end of the thread you can find a wonderful graph, basically a meal plan for beardies. Follow that plan if you don’t know where to start!
If you look at the chart again the frequency is on there as well. If a veggie is labeled “staple” that means it’s safe to feed it everyday. However variety is key. Personally I keep two staple greens for a week, mix them with something else that can be fed occasionally, then use some other staple greens next week. Does that make sense? Everyone feeds a different way just make sure your beardie isnt eating the same thing every single day.Now after reading the chart, I got a bit confused. What should be a staple, and what should not be a staple? How often to feed my beardie orange highlighted foods? How often to feed my beardie green highlighted foods? How often to feed my beardie red highlighted foods?
So those are foods green highlighted on the chart?dark leafy greens everyday. collard, mustard, turnip, ect. then add other stuff as toppers, just mix it up. the dark leafy is always the base though.

Wash it, bask it in the sun, pick out the moss/lichens parts, make sure there's no sharp edges, sterilize it with reptile friendly disinfectant, rinse it again then you're good to goBut how do I prepare the cork bark though?
Okay, thank youWash it, bask it in the sun, pick out the moss/lichens parts, make sure there's no sharp edges, sterilize it with reptile friendly disinfectant, rinse it again then you're good to go
