question about new food

[lorrainesmom]

I was in Petsmart earlier today to get stuff for my Uromastyx when I noticed a food I had never noticed before. It was made by National Geographic and the label said that it was formulated to replace crickets in a Bearded Dragon's diet. There were 2 different formulas, one for juvenile, and a different one for adults.

Has any one had any experience with this food before?

The reason that I'm asking about this is that I have always loved beardies, but absolutely HATE touching bugs. That is the reason that when I chose a lizard I went with a veggie eating lizard, and not the beardie. If this food is legit, I may be measuring my house for a spot to put a new tank after I get Onyx's enclosure perfect, and him eating regularly; which is still an ongoing struggle.....

I know exactly what you're talking about and i dont really trust it at all. Feel free to use it as a supplement, but a beardie would still need lots of other bugs besides crickets. Plus getting them to actually eat it can be an issue.
