In Depth Food...

As previously mentioned, bearded dragons will eat an array of things, thus it is assumed they are omnivores, which is an accurate statement. Adult bearded dragons are known to eat pinky mice, small lizards, and just about whatever they can find. Personnally, I have never attempted to feed a dragon either of those, because unlike monitors, who swallow things whole, bearded dragons typically chew them if they are too big and rip them to pieces, until they are able to eat it, and I just imagine mice or lizards pieces might be a bit of a mess. Also, one should only feed dragons such food when they are skinny and require the fat, or maybe as a monthly treat, so that it doesn't have extreme effects. Vegetables are a better route to go, although they will still need the protein from the meat. The smaller the dragon, the more chopped and diced the veggies should be, so that they don't choke. They also tend to eat a mix of carrots, lettuce, kale, and many others. Your dragon should be fed veggies every day. As for insects, the dragon will joyfully eat crickets, meal worms, wax worms and superworms. It helps if the insect had been fed before hand, so that the dragon gets more nutrition from them. This also helps with their protein. You may also need to get your dragon calcium and D3 supplements, to prevent bone disease.
