It's foolish to feed your dragon insects and lizards from outside because you don't know where they've been. It is very easy for insects and worms and such to have pesticides in or on them, and it is quite likely that animals from your backyard could be carrying diseases(as such in your earlier anole query). Add to all of this the risks of impaction, and the possibility of you feeding them something that you shouldn't (fireflies for example), and you're asking for trouble.

Don't forget that beardies become more and more vegetarian in their diets as they age too.
