If the dubia colony came with the dragon, then I probably wouldn't worry about new infections. Do you have a reason to think she has parasites? She needs a protein source and if you're not comfortable feeding her those dubias, then destroy them and replace with new ones or go get crickets. Greens are not enough, she has to have insects too. Depending on her age, insects may be the primary food source and not providing them is literally starving her.

You need to get the right temps first. They are exothermic (cold-blooded) and rely on having correct temps to survive. If her temps aren't correct then her body may feel similar to yours as if you had an internal temp of 103F or 95F... she will sicken and eventually die. If you are able, get a temperature gun, they sell them cheaply at Reptile Basics or even Harbor Freight, and you can get exact temps anywhere in the cage.

well he said he wasn't feeding the dubia's so they have been feeding off the dead ones in there for a really long time. i have her tank set up the hot side is at 95F 50humidity the cool side (side with water bowl) is 90F and 50humidity. I live in southern california so its pretty hot here year around

what I meant by working on the temps in her tank was adjusting the lamps and such to get good readings.

I'm a little strapped for cash is there a way to get her the protein she needs on a budget until I can get on my feet? possibly something i can store in bulk
