I am wondering if it is all right to feed my 2 yearold beardy quail eggs?

I just don't understand these weird feeding questions. Why would you want to?

Maybe he recieved some as a gift, but happens to be allergic to them so instead of tossing them he wants to put them to use.

Could feed them to the crickets maybe ; P

I've never heard of a bearded dragon eatting any type of yolk egg (although I'm sure they might in the wild once in a blue moon). Maybe if you hard boiled them?

not sure about quail eggs, but i feed mine a hard boiled regular chicken egg once in awhile. its high in protein and good for them as a treat once in awhile.

who cares about weird and odd feeders. would u like to live a life eating the same damn thing over and over? probably not, and neither to do dragons. =)

besides, people try "weird" food every now and again and enjoy it. Why shouldn't we do it with our pets from time to time

There is an article in reptiles magazine this month on gout which is common in reptiles. It mentions that there are different kinds of protien and that the wrong kind can lead to gout.

I would cook them first and offer only one egg as a treat once a month at the most..if that.

Definitely not something you want to give your dragon alot of. Not even sure a dragon would eat it anyway. But mixed in with their salad should be ok, but again, very rarely.

Monitors would love them though.
