I want to bread silkworms for my 1 month old beardie I have in the past just for fun and their easy to care for I was just wondering if the mulberry leaf that you feed silkworms dangerous to bearded dragons

I haven't heard of it being so, but i wouldn't feed it to your dragon anyways.

I know you posted a while ago but I really hope you did more research since then and are NOT feeding mealworms to your dragon. They are not good feeders at all. If you still are, look around this site for awhile.
