Posted by: PHLdyPayne at Mon Apr 17 12:29:15 2006 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by PHLdyPayne ] Though some types of catipillars are excellent food for bearded dragons (ie silkworms, hornworms (domesticated, not wild ones) butterworms) not all are suitable. Many are toxic to most animals who try and eat them (ie wild hornworms eat tomato and tobacco leaves, which causes a toxin to build up in their bodies which will kill most animals who eat them, except those specially designed to manage such high levels of toxins...bearded dragons and pretty much all pet reptiles I know of, are not able to eat wild hornworms. Domesticated hornworms are fed on a specially designed chow that doens't contain these toxins found in the plants wild ones eat). [ Hide Replies ]
