Safe Food Guide For Bearded Dragons | Vegetables, Fruits, and Bugs

[@danieltinch4497]

Discoid roaches are legal in Florida. Also they are similar in behavior and breeding needs. Also leagal in florida are the green banana roach ,horseshoe crab roach, death's head roach, palllid roach and surinim roach. Why I mention them is because some species of roach do not look exactly like the common german or american roach and some people get creeped out by them. Maybe you could find an suggest other breeds for those who get creeped out by roaches. I only mention this as I am in a few bearded dragon groups and a lot of people are creeped out by Dubia's. Also the austrailian roach doesn't look like a common roach and is legal in Canada. Florida and Canada are 2 places in north America that don't allow dubia roaches.

[@ellesreptiles]

Yes discoid roaches are a fantastic alternativ! 😊 I didn't know about the others you mentioned, though. That's very good to know. Thank you!

[@danieltinch4497]

@@ellesreptiles your welcome I have a whole list. The reaso I do is because I was kind of pushed into my Bearded dragon. Don't get me wrong I truly love her but like you I like to reasearch first. Anyway I ended up doing things backwards and started a crash course information overload research project and fixed most of my mistakes and seem to be doing fine now. Thanks to you and Facebook and many other youtubers andbearded dragon groups.

I'm getting a bearded dragon soon and I've spent ages watching your videos and they've helped with my stress so much you've been a life saver

[@gotohellenwaite6371]

If it moves my guys ( Sherman and Scooter ) will pounce and eat. Scooter is a bit more picky, where as Sherman is Ninja Beast Dragon. I guess I hit the jackpot with them and their salads, they love fresh salads, but will not touch the dehydrated salad mix. I bought both at Pet Smart . I am a care taker, my patient wanted one so we got two juveniles. Scooter is a little larger than Sherman. I’ve had iguanas and snakes and crested geckos, but never bearded dragons. This is how I found your channel. Thank you for the education.

[@GG-pv6fi]

Can't tell you how much I appreciate your video! I'm raising my first beared dragon and thought I understood their diet after doing hours of research, but after watching this I realized I could be doing so much better. I just want to make sure I provide him/her with the best life possible!

Quick tip if you don't want to boil squash and like you can use the microwave to cook it it's actually a good cheap quick way to soften harder foods

[@Str8Homah]

Thank you for doing all of these...especially about Beardies. I did my research for literally well over a year before getting one again. I got one when I was younger, but was pretty ignorant & didn't have a very good experience. Not to worry about the beardie, he went to a breeder after a few months & was not harmed by my ignorance, thankfully. I've had Iguanas when I lived in Florida, but always wanted a BD. This time around, I did my research well...but still have picked up many great tips from your videos, since Maximus "Max" Decimus Meridius came into my life. I love your attention to detail & your precise way of speaking that even a novice can understand. So, Thank You Very Much!

Hey, I’m currently in the research stage And I want to know if you can feed them pellet food instead of insects?

[@rachedenO]

@@TheAartist_G pellet food can't be used as their staple food, only as a backup. Live insects are best for them

[@TheAartist_G]

What insects should I feed as a staple?

[@rachedenO]

@@TheAartist_G this channel has a couple video on that, explained it pretty well. Most people feed them dubia roaches, crickets, black soldier fly larvae, and silkworms. Ocasionally superworms and hornworms.

I also cut the lettuce stems off and use them as food for my feeder bugs, which I have quite a collection of at this point (mealworms, superworms, bsfl, dubias and a culture of flightless fruit flies) but I have 18 reptiles and only 3 of them are non big eaters (2 royal pythons and a cali kingsnake) Thank you for making this video available to us beardie parents. Hiccup and Chani thank you as well lol. It’ll be nice to have a reliable list I can reference for safe veggies to expand the variety of food my dragons get to try. Hiccup is a huge fan of dandelion flowers and leaves and bell peppers. Chani is a little more of a picky and finicky eater. She only eats every other day it seems like and she likes bell peppers the most out of the veggies I’ve fed her thus far. She’s also a newer addition to my exotic collection and after having her for about a month or so she seems to finally be settling in more, though she’s still very jumpy and will puff her beard out any time I put my hand inside her enclosure, even if she’s at the other end of it. I’m working on getting her used to me reaching in and fiddling around with her water and food dishes and cleaning up her feces and urates. Fingers crossed that she will finally settle in and see me as a beneficial occurrence in her life rather than a huge scary predator. I’m definitely going to have to get a couple tank conversion kits so I don’t have to reach in at them from above and perhaps that change will help that aspect of the “taming” process I’m struggling with at least. Thanks again Elle. You, ma’am, are awesome! ☺️💕

[@ellesreptiles]

I definitely need to get more BSFL, but I've never kept large quantities for prolonged periods of time. Do you have to do anything special to keep them? And good luck working with your beardie. She'll settle in soon! Hopefully 🤞🏽💜

[@kerseykrewzoo]

@@ellesreptiles I looked up diy bsfl bins here on KZbin and found a few different ways to do it. If you get a good sized tub/container so there’s room for the flies to fly around and some corrugated cardboard for them to lay eggs in, that’s the most important things from what I’ve researched. You can rig the bin up with ramps for the bsfl to climb up and smaller containers at the end to collect them. I would search for diy bsfl bin and find the design you think would work the best for you. Once you have the bin set up, just toss your fruit and veggie scraps in and it’s ready to go. I just got my bsfl a couple weeks ago so mine are just in one of the tall clear cup containers for now until I can get my bin and set it up. They say the black bin with the yellow lid works really well for bsfl as they don’t like light and you may need a heat source but I can’t remember. Hope this helps! And thank you for your kind words about Chani. She was not treated really well at her last home I don’t think so I’m going slowly and being as patient with her as possible. 😊

Thank you for another great video!! I actually feed pretty much everything you mentioned except the lentils, I’m gonna have to try those. I also buy the bushels of greens b/c they last longer & feed the stems to my feeders as well. I breed Dubia & mealworms, also keep superworms & BSFL’s, don’t know how I still have some alive since Dec & Feb, think I’m breeding but not purposely, lol. I’ve been wanting to try silkworms & butter worms, but haven’t been able to get them yet. Also, I didn’t know about softening up the squash! My girl loves butternut squash & she now finally eats the yellow, acorn & spaghetti squash, but I cut it really thin or use a potato peeler. I might have to get a cheese grater. Anyway, even though I knew most of what was in your video… I still learned from it & it will definitely help new people or people who got wrong info. You are Amazing Elle!! 🤩

[@ellesreptiles]

Fair heads up, some channels recommend against the giving of any sugary fruits (especially modern super sugary fruits from grocery store) or even squash etc. that has sugars in them to dragons unless you're willing to brush their "teeth" on the semi-regular as well. They can get tooth decay in their "teeth" (not real teeth but a bone that acts as teeth) and it can be lights out for the beardie if it gets bad. At the least keep an eye on their "teeth" if you feed fruit etc.

Hello, Elle and Zasa! I sure hope I spelled her name right so she doesn’t get an attitude lol. Whelp, it’s official, I’m a 50 y.o. new momma again! Starting all over when my youngest baby is 25… what was I thinking?! I just adopted a new baby boy beardie last night 💙 🦎💙 and I’m in love. My daughter has one and he’s almost 3y.o. and so stinking cute with such a personality on him. My husband and I’ve had to give up our home and all due to loosing our business with Covid so we had to downsize into an apartment and it’s just really difficult for me with a dog (but I must admit I’m a MAJOR dog lover, have been my whole life). While my ex husband and I’ve had a larger range of animals during our time together within the past 20 years I’ve only had dogs and fish. So this is going to be a big adjustment for me and especially since I really don’t know a whole lot other then what I’ve seen or been told by my baby girl. Some of the things she’s actually told me or been doing however, I’ve already heard in your videos today that aren’t correct but for the most part she’s on target. It sucks though I am one of those people who like you are a bit wigged out by crickets 🦗 and in my case live in Fl as well 😩. I saved the list in your video HUGE THANKS for that and I’ve taken several notes from other videos since this ole gals brain don’t remember quite like it use to lol. But since my daughter lives out of town and you definitely seem to have more experience is there any particular pointers you can give me? Also, while I wanted a girl I ended up with a boy so now I don’t have a name for him, you seem to be AWESOME at picking out cool names so any suggestions? Well I’ve wrote a book to you by now (sorry) and really hope to hear back. Gotta go and finish some more of your videos. I’ve already subscribed to all your channels except twitter as for some reason I’ve never gotten into that one. Thanks for all the guidance and advice 💙🦎🙏🏼
