What can I feed bearded dragons? This is one of the most frequently asked questions from first-time reptile owners. Most enthusiasts are aware that these lizards are omnivores, thus needing insects as well as veggies to fulfill their diet. But many keepers are unaware of which plants and insects have the most nutritional value for their pets health. Others may have a grasp on the proper items to offer, but are failing to provide supplements that are critical in promoting a long healthy life.
Vegetables
Beardies should have fresh veggies available at all times to them. Not only do the vegetables possess crucial vitamins, but they also provide hydration to our pet. I always mist my salads with water to boost the hydration value.
Every Day Staples
Collard, Mustard, Dandelion and Turnip Greens
Spaghetti, Summer, Acorn, Butternut, Hubbard and Scallop Squash
Kale
Escarole
Cactus Pads
Endive
Occasional Treats
Garbanzo, Green, Kidney, Lima and Pinto Beans
Red, Yellow, Green and Red Bell Peppers
Red and Green Cabbage
Okra
Asparagus
Snap Peas
Insects
There are several insects that are great for our dragons. Always buy or raise your own insects, never offer wild-caught insects. Wild bugs can carry parasites and even be poisonous to our pets. Always gut-load your insects by feeding them either fruits and veggies that are good for your lizard, or buy specific insect feeds found at pet suppliers.
Every Day Staples
Phoenix Worms (Calci-Worms)
Silk Worms
Dubia Roaches (Illegal in some states)
Crickets
Superworms
Butter Worms
Hornworms
Fruits
All fruits should be fed only on occasion. Fruits that are very high in sugars should be avoided. You should also peel any fruit that has skin to make them easily digestible.
Occasional Treats
Apples
Apricot
Blue, Straw and Cran-berries (Fresh)
Cantaloupe
Mango
Mandarin Orange
Pineapple
Plums
Watermelon
When you feed bearded dragons, whether it is veggies or insects, you should be dusting with calcium supplements at least 5x a week. A multi-vitamin should be given at least twice a week also. Always make sure all items are smaller than 3/4 of the dragon's head to ensure proper digestion, and always have a fresh water dish available.

Little Dragon Is it safe to feed a almost two year old bearded dragon about ten little pieces of apple everyday ?
i adopted munchkin about three weeks ago and i find she just loves apples ive been giving her them almost everyday is that ok???
yes thats great. here is a list of other great veggies to feed her!
Veggies -
At a young age, Bearded Dragons will not to eat as much vegetation as their adult counterparts. As a Bearded Dragon ages it will eat less animal matter and more plants, leveling off at around an 80% plant and 20% animal diet. There is a huge selection of 'leafy' greens which are high in calcium to feed your Dragon, some of which are... kale, argula, collard & mustard greens, parsley, dandelion greens and flowers, endives, radish, carrot and turnip tops, escarole and chicory endive. For more of a variety, mixed into the greens may be many other veggies such as squash, corn, peas, carrots (shredded), sweet potato, cucumber, zucchini, green peppers, chard... also chopped fruit such as cantaloupe, apple, blueberries, peaches, pears, grapes, plums, raspberries... all chopped finely to avoid choking. The main idea in their diet is variety.**Do not feed your dragons iceberg lettuce as is has very little nutritional value and may give the dragon the 'runs' - prompting dehydration.
Dragons will also munch on other greens. If you take your dragon outside or allow it to roam about the house - please be sure to check that the possible munchies are not poisonous.
Though Simenon's breakout hit "Beat Dis" isn't quite as frenetic as contemporary material by Coldcut (or even M/A/R/R/S), the debut Bomb the Bass LP is an intriguing trip through sampledelic hip-hop, electro, acid-house, and even dance-pop (as on his other hits, "Don't Make Me Wait" and the Burt Bacharach cover "Say a Little Prayer"). Much of the album mines territory similar to "Beat Dis" -- that is, inventive hip-hop tracks like "On the Cut," "Megablast (Hip Hop on Precinct 13)," and "Dynamite Beats" which are somewhat indebted to Mantronix. ~ Keith Farley

Little Dragon - Constant Surprises
Dragon Slaying In The Dragons Den With Evan Davis
Move over Saint George there's a new bout of dragon slaying with Evan Davis Dragons Den.
Business owners will no doubt be riveted by the new Dragon's Den 2010 eighth series. I think the Dragons Den should be compulsive viewing for every new business start up owner.
Who can fail to learn from a multitude of business ideas presented to credible investors like Peter Jones, Duncan Bannatyne, Theo Paphitis, Deborah Meaden & James Caan.
Dragons Den Dragon Slaying With Evan Davis and Peter Jones
Peter Jones is a charismatic investor known to have visionary tendencies.
Given there have been seven prior series of Dragons Den TV, his fellow Dragons Duncan Bannatyne, Theo Paphitis, Deborah Meaden and James Caan appear to have wised up to his tactic of sitting back and letting his associates fight over a deal before coming in late and stealing it out from under their noses.
As the visionary of the investors, Peter Jones appears to listen very carefully to each and every one of the ideas presented to the investors.
He is firm, but fair and has often provided excellent advice and encouragement to aspiring entrepreneurs who have failed in their pitch for financial investment.
Conversely, rub him up the wrong way and his tongue lashing flicks out with the venom of a spitting Cobra.
Despite his somewhat lay back attitude, Peter Jones is very big on presentation, and despite dismissing several previous candidates for pitching their ideas while dressed inappropriately, candidates still appear before the Dragons dressed down in street casual clothing.
The Military use the phrase, 'Booted & Suited' which means dressing to impress in your best outfit or uniform. Peter Jones has expressed booted & suited is the option he prefers from people who are looking for him to invest in them.
Peter Jones shares business growth traits with the USA entrepreneur Donald Trump, as they have both stated they believe, if you are thinking anything about business, then you should think big.
After appearing in all seven of The Dragons Den TV series, most fans now search for him online using the key phrase Peter Jones Dragons Den.
Look to the Dragon's Den 2010 series for more dynamic investments from Peter Jones.
Dragons Den Dragon Slaying With Evan Davis and Duncan Bannatyne
Duncan Bannatyne is one of two remaining original Dragons. He has been described as a tough no nonsense Scotsman, who voices his opinion whether negative or positive in the Dragons Den.
Labelled as the Dragons Den serial entrepreneur, Duncan Bannatyne appears to be the Dragon most entrepreneurs' presenting business pitches to seem to fear the most.
And rightly so, as Duncan Bannatyne has little time for fools or bluffers. This fact will be borne out by his commanding officer in the British Navy who Duncan tried unceremoniously to throw overboard, resulting in him receiving a dishonourable discharge from Her Majesties Navy.
Duncan Bannatyne places great emphasis on entrepreneur presenters' getting their financial figures right. He places great emphasis on financials and on people involved in the business.
Viewers of Dragon's Den 2010, and fans of Duncan Bannatyne will be anxiously watching to see if he retains his investment partnership with James Caan.
Or if he'll throw the TV audience a curved ball and align himself with Peter Jones to grab the best investment proposals away from Team Theo Paphitis and Deborah Meaden.
Given his status as a serial entrepreneur, it will be interesting to see which of the Dragons Den ideas excites Duncan Bannatyne in the new series.
Some business owners will be betting he will look to invest in new Dragons Den ideas that will compliment his existing portfolio of business interests.
Either way, Duncan Bannatyne gravelly voiced rendition of, 'I'm Out,' will send many aspiring entrepreneurs racing down the stairs crying for their Mommy.
Dragons Den Dragon Slaying With Evan Davis and Theo Paphitis
On The Dragons Den most aspiring business entrepreneurs begin their journey with what they consider to be a fantastic business idea.
They climb The Dragons Den steep staircase, and walk under the spotlight completely out of breath to be faced by a bank of financial investors.
Collectively they are known as the Dragons.
Individually they are Theo Paphitis Dragons Den, Peter Jones, Duncan Bannatyne, Deborah Meaden and James Caan. Collectively as fierce some as any front line of an all American football team.
If ever you want to hear, and see the greatest leveller directed towards an aspiring presenter pitching his or her business ideas, then listen out for the stinging remarks from Theo Paphitis.
"I'd rather stick needles in my eyes than invest in you." "You are completely un-investable" and "that's the worst presentation pitch I have ever heard," are just a few of his dismissive remarks.
Theo Paphitis is recognised as The Dragons Den Retail Expert.
In relation to retail product sales, many aspiring entrepreneurs pitch their ideas in the hope of hooking Theo Paphitis because he is the only Dragon who can offer an almost immediate sales outlet through his core businesses.
This ability to move immediately has been the determining factor in securing investment away from Peter Jones, Duncan Bannatyne, Deborah Meaden and James Caan, despite him requesting a higher equity stake in the business.
This ability to move retail products quickly to market has resulted in a perfect investment partnership between Theo Paphitis and Deborah Meaden. Her marketing knowledge, and his retail sales skills form an outstanding synergy.
Any aspiring entrepreneur finding investment from this partnership in the Dragon's Den 2010 series will find they are receiving lots of added value besides the financial investment.
Dragons Den Dragon Slaying With Evan Davis and Deborah Meaden
Watching Deborah Meaden on The Dragons Den as she engages with someone pitching their business idea and screwing up their presentation, is like watching a battle between a Mongoose and a Cobra.
That said, on the face of it, Deborah Meaden seems easy to please. She is on record as stating the following 4 issues are what dictate whether she will invest in a business or not.
Are we getting the right solution?
Can the vendor really do it?
Is it a fair price?
Will it deliver a good return on investment?
Address these issues and you will grab the attention of Deborah Meaden.
However be advised, fail to address these issues or try to bluff, or wing your way through your Dragons Den ideas pitch, and the Mongoose will launch a pre-emptive strike.
Once in attack mode Deborah Meaden never let's go until she finds the precise answers to her direct and probing questions.
This has left many aspiring entrepreneurs shell shocked and wondering why they ever considered pitching before the Dragons.
It's not just the entrepreneurs who hunker down when Deborah Meaden is in full flow. Peter Jones, Duncan Bannatyne, Theo Paphitis and James Caan all back off in the face of one of her scathing attacks.
It will be interesting to see if during the new Dragon's Den 2010 series whether Deborah Meaden continues to partner up with Theo Paphitis on some investments, or whether she will continue to identify environmentally sound investment ideas.
Dragons Den Dragon Slaying With Evan Davis and James Caan
Billed as The Dragons Den's People Investor, James Caan is a canny investor who seems to place a great deal of emphasis on the people presenting their ideas for investment.
Viewers watching the new series Dragon's Den 2010 will understand what I mean, when I say James Caan would make a lousy card player.
However James Caan might just be fooling the entire TV audience with his 'Card Game Tell Habit' of stroking his beard whenever new ideas seem to excite him.
On the face of it, James knows exactly what he is looking for in an investment proposition and he sticks rigidly to his guns to find out the precise answers to his probing questions.
James Caan has formed a very successful alliance with Duncan Bannatyne and viewers of the new 2010 series will be eager to see if this team partnership is formidable enough to see off challenges from Team Theo Paphitis and Deborah Meaden.
One thing is certain, James Caan needs to keep a very close eye on rival Peter Jones because he is equally as adept at identifying and closing down a lucrative investment on Dragons Den TV.

Top Tips For Teaching Your Bearded Dragon To Eat Veggies
Vegetables are not always at the top of the list on your bearded dragon's ideal diet. He will readily eat insects and worms, but he may be leery of vegetables at first. The bearded dragon enjoys being hand fed and this may be the first step in teaching your bearded dragon to eat vegetables. The bearded dragon may take awhile to learn to eat veggies but there are several steps that you can take to encourage the bearded dragon to eat their veggies.
There are several methods that you can use to encourage your bearded dragon to eat veggies. Many people have suggested hanging large leafs in the bearded dragon's take. This will allow them to pull off pieces of the green. Greens may also be placed in a shallow bowl so that the bearded dragon can see them. If young bearded dragons cannot see their food, they generally will not eat it. Adding crickets to the greens will also encourage the bearded dragon to eat the greens because as they catch a cricket, they will catch some greens as well. Eventually, they will learn to eat the greens. Withholding crickets for a couple of days will also encourage the bearded dragons to eat the greens as this is their only source of food.
Misting the greens will also encourage the bearded dragon to eat their greens. The bearded dragon is attracted to the greens because the misting brings the greens to their attention. They will also be tempted to eat them for the moisture.
Baby and juvenile bearded dragons have a hard time to eating what they can't see. A flat jar lid will help them see the greens and they will be tempted to try them. Piling the greens up will also encourage them to eat the greens. Babies and juvenile bearded dragons do not generally eat a lot of greens and their diet consists mostly of crickets. They will learn slowly to eat the veggies.
Feeding mealworms in the greens and on a salad will also make the bearded dragons accidentally eat the salad. Slowly the salad will also begin to disappear. Cutting pieces of yellow squash into strips will make the squash look like mealworms to the bearded dragons. Once they try the first one, the bearded dragons will begin eating them. You can also begin to place those on top of other greens and those will slowly begin to disappear as well.
Bearded dragons are also very visual. They assume that just about everything that moves is food. Many people drop their food from above the bearded dragons in their cage. Dropping small pieces of food from above may encourage the bearded dragons to try the greens as they are falling from above them. They will see the movement of the pieces of food and they will be tempted to eat them. Clipping pieces of greens and placing a fan on them will cause the greens to wave. The bearded dragon will be tempted to eat the moving greens. Soon, they will be pulling pieces off in no time.
For those bearded dragons that are still reluctant at eating their greens, your next option will be to gut load the bearded dragon's crickets. Feed your bearded dragon's greens and veggies to the crickets. Feed the gut-loaded crickets to the bearded dragons. They will receive the nutrients from their greens and veggies as their crickets have also eaten the veggies. This is a great way to get baby and juvenile bearded dragons to eat their greens. Babies and juvenile bearded dragons do not generally eat a whole lot of greens and will benefit from the gut-loaded crickets.
Variety is the spice of life for most bearded dragons. Spicing up their veggie diet will also encourage them to eat veggies as well. Colorful plants such as dandelions, hibiscus and other edible flowers and plants will brighten the habitat and the bearded dragons will become more interested in the new things in their cage.
Dusting the veggies in calcium may also encourage the bearded dragons to eat them. They generally eat other insects with calcium dusted on them and veggies are no different. They will soon eat their veggies because they are dusted in calcium as well.
Fruits and veggies provide the bearded dragon with moisture. They will also receive the necessary nutrients that veggies will provide the bearded dragon. Keep trying and mixing things up with bearded dragons that are reluctant to eat veggies on their own.
