Feeding baby beardies..(4-8 week olds)

lil_frogger2 Aug 12, 2003 04:24 PM

I got two baby beardies about a week and a half ago. I've read to feed them once a day, and let them eat as much as they can in 10 minutes. So I've been doing that, but now I've been reading that people are feeding their beardies twice a day..so now I'm confused, lol. Along with their crickets they eat their greens too, like escarole, dandelion greens, endive, and collared greens. Occasionally they also get crookneck squash and blueberries. Am I feeding them enough? They aren't skinny or anything, and in ten minutes they eat about 25-30 crix. Thanks
