Syringe Feeding Question!! :)

[Morty_Dragon]

Our Bearded Dragon, Morty is about 11 months and 380g now (vet says shes “adult size”)

Started syringe feeding because shes diagnosed anorexic from coccydia worms ruining her appetite and has meds that require her to take with food. Whats a good amount of food to feed via syringe to a dragon no longer in growth phase??

I saw 1 post that said 1ml food per 50g dragon weight but just wanna double check to make sure!!

Thanks in advance!

You should start a new thread because there are a lot of questions about why you have to syringe feed your dragon.

Agreed. Not to mention thread hijacking is against the forum rules.
