    I used to feed mine worms, and never had that issue. I actually had to limit them on the worms because they were getting fat. I fed mine a mixture of crickets and worms. Once of size a pinky on rare occasion.

    No, there is not a warranty for a weak UVB light LOL. They should be replaced annually. It is not the same as the light going out.

    Wax worms are great but really high in fat.:gj:

    Dragons have a whole different "attitude" to them, kind of like a cat;)

    x2 didn't see the yup of bulb. I spent alittle extra ($50-60 can't remember exact amount) for my bulb, but lasted a long time.

    Wax worms are more of a treat, but feed too many they do get fat. Once mine got of size they loved super worms, but I didn't give them too many of those either. Their main diet was crickets, just gave them worms ever once in a while and a pinky maybe once a month or every other month.

    my boyfriend does like to give meal worms every other day, but only the bigger one eats them right now, they smaller one likes his veggies more. could be the reason for the size differance?:confusd:
