I don't know about the canned stuff, but the rep-cal pellets are great for them (get the juvie).

As long as they're still growing they need the extra protien. At 6 months he's definately still growing. Sounds like you're just gonna have a big dragon!

I feed everyone the juvie, it has more protein and a better balance IMO. I also feed salad and some bugs, but mainly the juvie pellet is their staple.

Really? I thought the "Juvie" Rep Cal pellets kind were just smaller with only a slight differenc in nutrition?

Either way, My dragons like them and I always give them moistened pellets. Either soaked or heavily misted with water or soaked in pedialyte. At first I thought my dragons couldn't bite through the adult pellets but one morning I heard one of them crunching a pellet in its mouth. That's when I realized how strong those jaws were.
