she doesn't seem to like crickets all that much anymore, i'm feeding her repcal beardie adult pellets she eats some i saok them before i give them to her, and silk worms she loves and superowrms and waxworms and greens ,what could it be ? she seems to always be thirsty and drinks alot when i put water in or soak her? any help i would appreciate,thanks

Most people struggle to get their dragons to drink as much water as yours seems to. Consider your self lucky! As far as not eating crickets as much, you may have spoiled her with the worms. Without knowing how many wax/meal/silk worms your giving her, it sounds like your doing just fine.

i barely give her worms just when i do i give her alot, i give her worms once a week or two, she eats alot of greens and squash and carrots and is eating the repcal beardie pellets now

Silkworms are much better for your dragon than the crickets anyway, I would give more silkworms and stop the cricket altogether if that is feasable for you. The fact your dragon is drinking alot of water isn't really a problem though it could mean a kidney problem or some other system. I most certainly don't know for sure and it's only a guess that could be completely off. Does he have alot of liquid in her poo? If his health is great and there is no sign of dehydration despite all the water he drinks, I wouldn't worry about it.

nah his stools are the same solid how they are supoosed to be they don't really stink and only a lil bit of liquid in it , there normal and hes very active , well thanks
