Complete bearded dragon diet guide: age-based insect-to-vegetable ratios, safe foods list, and calcium supplementation.
Bearded dragons are omnivores whose diet balance shifts dramatically with age — from mostly insects as babies to mostly vegetables as adults.
Baby (0-6 months): 80% insects, 20% vegetables. Young (6-12 months): 60% insects, 40% vegetables. Adult (1+ years): 30% insects, 70% vegetables.
Dubia roaches (low fat, high protein), crickets (well-balanced), silkworms (calcium-rich). Mealworms and waxworms are treats only.
Daily: Collard greens, bok choy, squash, grated carrot. Occasional: Broccoli, banana. Never: Avocado, spinach, citrus.
Dust insects with calcium powder at every feeding. Use D3-enriched calcium 2-3 times per week. Calcium deficiency causes MBD.
Bri-Choku breeders raise beardies on proper diets and can advise on feeding.
