Why won't my bearded Dragon eat this.

Almost right. You need to give him all the crickets he wants to eat each time you feed him in about 10 minutes time. He may want to eat 30 or so, you have to feed him them until he is full & doesn't want any more. Remember, you won't dust the 2nd feeding each day with calcium though. And on the 2 days you dust with the vitamins, you only dust the 1st feeding with the vitamins, the 2nd feeding will be non-dusted each time.

No, not a good idea to feed dead crickets because they died for a reason and are unhealthy. You also have to remember to remove any dead crickets otherwise they will stink and make the live crickets unhealthy.

ok and it will come to 32$ so i can't buy the thermometer... stupid shipping
Also i won't have money to buy him live feeder till i get the other ones.

I agree that shipping charges are expensive but can't be helped.

Also i won't have money to buy him live feeder till i get the other ones.

Ill ask my dad if he can buy the 2 greens and srawburrys and i have 1 hornworm left and 2 babes growing. And i do have a bunch of freeze dried mealworms but their bad for him right. plus the stupid pellets he stopped eating :evil:

Most beardies don't eat the pellets unfortunately. BUT, you can feed them to the crickets.

You're right, the freeze dried mealworms aren't good & could cause him to get bound up. To help fill in before you get the cricket shipment, you could pick up some chicken (stage one) baby food as well as some squash baby food and mix a little together. Then put drops on his nose for him to lick off. That will help give him some protein intake.
