The only worry about finally deciding to go and get a beardie is the cost of feeding him. I've read here that most people will feed their beardies 50 to 100 crickets a day or more if they eat more than that in 15 minutes. At that rate with crickets costing 10 cents a piece, that can add up to $5.00 to $10.00 per day or up to $50.00 a month. I'm sorry but that is just way too much for me to pay to feed any sort of pet.
I also know several people who have beardies who tell me that they've never heard of a beardie eating that much a day. So I'm confused and don't know what to think. I would love to get a beardie but want to make sure that I give him the best of everything and I just can't justify spending that much money to feed him.
