my bearded dragon buster eats some grasshoppers and some dry pelet food at night. But he didnt eat as many grashoppers as usual and hasnt been for a week,and tonite he regugitated his pelets...? I know mabey ne ate to much tonite, but he didnt and isnt been eatting much as when i first got him.

If they prey is too big that can cause regurgitation. Also it is very important not to feed them at night. they need hours of basking to digest food. If you feed them at night the food can rot in their bellies. Causing them to regurgitate.

I got my bearded dragon a couple weeks before christmas and has been eating the same size grasshoppers since the people who had him before me...and he reguritated the tiny pelets which he never has done...the people who had him before me always fed him at night with a spoon cause he's spoiled and usualy wont eat it if its in his food dish...???

You defintly need to try to break the habit of feeding him at night. feed him during the day. If he doesnt eat the first couple tries thats fine, hee'll get hungry and the instinct to eat will kick in. good luck
