Some will say Pinkies but I disagree because they are too high in fat and the wrong kind of protein for Dragons. The best choice is well gutloaded crickets once daily in whatever quantity she will eat. Leave a nutritious salad in the rest of the day.
silkworms, butterworms and horn worms can be used help 'beef' up your dragons after egg laying. Pinky mice are ok, but one a week between clutches should be the max. Frequent feeding and idea basking temps etc will be much better with well gut loaded crickets and wholesome salads. Don't forget calcium dusts and plenty of water to keep them hydrated too.
