Can you a feed bearded dragon wild crickets?

Answer 1

Of course! Just make sure the crickets haven't been sprayed by any chemicals or anything! Also, make sure the crickets are the correct size;

Baby= Pinhead crickets (these crickets are just about 3 weeks old. They are about 1/4 of an inch long)

Juvenile=Pinhead Crickets

Adult= Adult Crickets (NEVER confuse a cricket with a grasshopper)

Answer 2

He is 5 months old. The breeder we got him from said he ate crickets before. He dose eat worms, veggies, and fruit. But has no intrest in crickets. I do have another beardie about the same age and she is doing really good. The tank is the right temp, they have UVB & heat lights for 13 hours a day. They are handled daily for about 1 hour, and both seem to be doing really well. Im just trying to figure out how to stimulat him to eat crickets. He loves worms but those are ment as a snack every couple of days. I dont want him to get impacted because he is so young. I put them in the same tank to see if the competitiveness would spark him to go after some but he could care less. He was never rased on pellits so he wont eat them. But he dose eat everything else. Dose any one have any suggestions or know of anything else i can give him so i know he is getting the vitamins he needs?
