This is Dave a 10 month old bearded dragon who is my absolute bestie. He lives in a 4ft Viv and He has 2 salads a day and about 4-5 worms every other day I’m trying to slow the worms down, but it’s a miracle as he never used to eat salads now he eats his whole salad everyday.
This is Dave my 10 month old bearded dragon does he look healthy?
Thank you so much I will definitely use Dubai roaches instead, and I did have a metal lamp cover but it had broke and the screws got lost so I will definitely order a new one, thank you again !!!
Would you say he is overweight or just perfect weight? I just love him so much 😝so I love to hear other peoples feedback to improve but I consider I’m doing great for him being my first ever bearded dragon of my own
Given that he’s still young and filling out his body, I don’t think he’s overweight and it’s ok for him to eat what you’re feeding him now. His weight will increase rapidly over the course of the next 6 months to a year. Maybe in about 8 months or so, definitely scale back on the amount you are feeding him (and definitely cut back on the worms haha).
Here’s a helpful guide:
Hope this helps :)
Yes thank you! I’m going to start feeding him Dubai roaches and when he turns 1 year old I will be feeding him bugs around 2-3 times a week and if that’s too many for him I will definitely try lowering the amount 😝
That sounds fine. The protein to veggie ratio of an adult beardie should be ~20% protein and ~80% veggies. It is nice to see someone so enthusiastic and proactive about their pet, especially as a reptile owner 😁
Yessss!! , I will forever be enthusiastic about Dave he is my best friend 😅 thank you again !!! Now I would love to own a corn snake and call them carol 😝
Your doing great he looks healthy and happy
Thank you so much!
Your very welcome, keep up the good work

Dave looks super happy. Keep up the great work!

I'd stop with the worms and go to other staples.
How long are they?
Yasss!
dave is a beautiful boy, good job
Yep, he a big boi!
Dave is thicccccccccc
Yes, he’s a chonker 😆 I recommend dubia roaches if accessible to you. Not sure which worms you’re feeding him but they’re usually fed as treats.
I can see the love you put into his home 🥹 One suggestion that I have is to make sure you secure the light bulb so that it’s not exposed and he can’t bump into it. I know that my little dude can jump high enough, so my lamps are in a dome on top of some metal mesh.
Anyway, I like the plants you put in/around his tank, livens it up :)
