Can dragons be left two days without live feedings? Curious about how to take care of weekend conditions if can't find someone to feed them.
Just curious and trying to prepare...Ideally I'll find a babysitter..

Depends on the age of the dragon. Adult dragons can be fine a few days without any living food, but still should have greens and/or pellets available. Babies shouldn't be left without live food that long.
I would suggest getting in an order of silkworms and leaving them in the cooler area of the cage with silkworm chow, leave enough for your dragon to last the weekend. I do that often for mine when I am not going to be around to feed her afternoon meal. Since most dragons don't see to eat everything in sight, they should eat their fill and leave the rest for later.
