What to feed your baby bearded dragon?
The best diet for a baby bearded dragon is what they call "pinhead crickets" which are basically really tiny crickets. They also need fresh greens like romaine lettuce and need to be misted several times a day for the first couple of weeks after they are hatched. As they get bigger they stop needing to be misted because they get moisture from their greens. You may also want to think about a calcium supplement powder to sprinkle onto the crickets as well as the greens. The most important thing to remember about bearded dragons is that they are desert lizards and need high heat as well as high levels of UVB light to thrive. If they do not have both of these they will die.

No. Feed them crickets, mealworms or roaches from a local pet store no bigger than the width between the Bearded Dragon's eyes. That should be half the diet (about 80% when it's a baby).

Lettuce isn't a very good staple food, even romaine.
