Hey Dave Dragon your blue dosen't like supers, wow mine will eat them even when he looks full, lol. Course mine is still a youngster at only 10 months old. I use supers as his stable and give him a mouse or young rat every other day. in between he gets treats as well, like roachs, turkey, eggs... the list is long, but even with that verity he never turns down supers... could just be the age gap though, after all i could eat pizza everynight but my mom only likes it once in awhile, lol.
Also nyworms has a good selection on roachs and mealies as well, The lobsters and mealies i got from them a year ago were in great shape, my lizards just turned out not to like roachs, lol.

I take that back!! He ate some last night. I need to feed him outside his tank though. He would grab them, throw them to the substrate, pick them up, maybe throw them down again and finally eat them. He only lost one. Our Bearded Dragons ate some too.
I've got a roach colony but one of our Bearded Dragons has discovered he like roaches and has eaten almost all the males. For months they never were interested. Time for him to switch to supers for a few months (while the roach colony regrows) and get away from those stinky crickets.
Our 5 month old B&W gets 2 fuzzy mice (with Tegu Bites and some fruit) every other day. He actually will eat a little fruit! Our 2.5 year old blue is overweight and has been cut back to an adult mouse every 4 days and offered supers and fruit every day. He has eaten a little fruit too! I still have to try eggs with both of them! _________________ 1.1 Blue Tegu +21 EGGS, 1.0 Red Tegu, 0.1 B&W Arg. Tegu
