Bearded Dragon Eat

If you’ve ever seen a Bearded Dragon eat, then you know for such a small guy he can certainly pack away the food. When it’s time to dine, Beardies are just like their human owners. None of them want a diet of the same old, same old. But since they don’t have the option of phoning out for a pizza when the food routine gets dull, it’s up to you, the loving owner to give him a variety of food to feed his appetite.

While it’s tempting to watch your Bearded Dragon eat, he doesn’t like to be stared at any more than you do. Even though you might find it fascinating to watch him devour the bugs or greens, give him a little space so he can have his meal in peace. An occasional glance is okay but just don’t make his mealtime the center of attention.

Are you not sure what your Beardie will want to munch on? Though they’re not terribly picky eaters, there are some foods that hit the spot with them. You can find tutorials and videos that show a Bearded Dragon eat just about anything which is why you have to be careful what you put in his tank. For starters, you can try him out on the kind of insects he thinks are delicious-insects like crickets or mealworms-be sure and gut load the insects first. Give him fruits and vegetables in his diet too. Beardies love vegetables like squash, green beans and collard greens.
