    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

How many crickets do you feed a 3 and 1/2 month bearded dragon that is 9 and 1/2 long. Feeding 3 times a day in 10 mins. he eats 30 and more a feeding. 1/2 to 5/8. He weighed 31 when I purchased him and now weights 41 a week later. I feed him kale and romaine before I feed him crickets. Sometimes he stops, so I know he is full, but after 50 I stop. Should I keep feeding till he stops?

Donna, feed as many as he will eat within 15 min...I add them to the salad by cooling them down in the fridge for @20 min....the dragon will eat them as they warm up and get salad as well...have you tried mashed pumpkin yet? mine go nuts for it
 
They love squash in general. I chop up yellow squash, acorn squash and butternut squash into small bite sized chunks, add a small amount of water, and cook/steam it all in the microwave, cool and serve, and mine go nuts on the squash like it was bugs.
 
He needs some dark greens like collards and turnip greens go lite on the kale and romain don’t do much for him.
