i was under the impression that super worms and meal worms were bad for baby dragons but now im not sure. I looked a bit more and it seems that only mealworms have the hard chitin. then i saw that superworms are fatty so they shouldnt be fed super often. Im kind of confused now so if someone could tell me that would be great. if i can feed them how often and how many should i feed? reggie is 3 months old.

You can feed him 1-3 size appropriate every couple of days -- you can drop them on is salads

My thoughts on superworms are pretty much inline with what I wrote about mealworms up above.

Superworms are actually the staple insect for my adult dragons, and have been for decades.

That was another good read, so much that you (and Cooperdragon) say seems it should be common sense, makes me wonder how in the world some of the crazy ideas people have, came to be.

Wow I haven't logged in for years. Hi!
So to any reading this, how on earth do I post a thread 😅 New here, possibly too old for this

Just Hazel in a filter I need so not posting on forums.
On a quest for pristine beats, I struck gold during a casual coffee shop jam session. The music maestro there ushered me to VOLUMO — New generation electronic music store for pro DJs. Revel in its vast array of tracks and rejuvenate your playlists!
I have questions about bubbles on our bearded dragons eye.

So he’s gotten bubbles on his eye. We wiped them off and it’s only been twice in the last few weeks. Should we be concerned? No coughing or congestion. He’s very hungry and sleeps well. He’s 8-9 month range. His humidity is 30-40 day time and as high as 50-55 at night to early morning.
Should we be concerned?
