Feeding larger crickets to Juvniles

[PatrickTheArowana]

My bearded dragons are 3 months old now and are about 3" long without the tail.I had just uped the cricket size to 3/4.Is this okay or am I still at risk of them getting hind leg extension?

Well is always better to give many small ones than a few larger but wait for the others

i agree i would stay with 1/2 in for atleast another month

Well,it looks like they grew quite a bit since last time I measured them,which was 2 or 3 weeks ago.They are now 3" 3/4

I also feed my 3 times a day,so I know mine are bigger than most other peoples at this stage.They're a lot of people that just feed them once a day if that!


So maybe not so weird after all...
