The video above outlines some of the most important details to consider when preparing veggies for your bearded dragon.
You should be feeding your dragons about a 70/30% split of live food to veggies. Ideally you can offer a little bit of both on a near daily basis. If this is not possible, try feeding your adult dragon about 2-4 dozen crickets two times weekly and then feed them veggies on the other five days.
