quick question - insect:vegetable ratio...

[Awesome]

I know that as BDs age, their diet spectrum shifts from insects as juveniles to vegetables and fruits as adults.

I'm not sure when to make a "shift" in the diet. My beardie is about 19 months (1 year 7 months) old and I've been feeding her about 60% crickets/dubia and 40% vegetables/fruits for the past 3 months or so. At what age do I increase the vegetable/fruit intake and decrease the insect intake? Do I base this decision on her age or her size?

Is there a resource that I can utilize that maps this out? I couldn't find anything on beautifuldragons.

Usually around 1 year is when the switch occurs, but gradual change is good. She should be eating 20% feeders and 80% veggies and greens by now. Go easy on the fruits since the sugars can increase the likelihood of fungal infections.

Thanks, I'll lower the fruit intake right away.
