Re: so what do i need

Mine loves romaine, split grapes, shredded zucchini, squash, shredded sweet potatoes, strawberries sliced with the green still attached, blueberries, spinach leaves, bananas sometimes, pretty much anything in the produce section exception for onions and lettuce. Lettuce is a super no no. Sprinkle a tiny bit of calcium powder on top and mix it into the top layer. If you add to much They wont eat it. I also pour a bit into a bag with crickets in it and when they are all white we are good to go. Mine wont use a water dish so I have to stick him in the sink every so often and I mist his tank everyday. He loves misty time. Also I've heard of numerous dragons dying from food not being shredded/cut up enough and them choking, metabolic bone disease from lack of calcium, failure to digest and thrive from not having the proper lighting and heat sorce. ..they will also eat anything you put in the cage. Pine/cypress all bad. A few breeders use rabbit food pellets because they are made out of compressed veggy/hay material and can pass through their digestive tract. I've always used sand. As in the steralized play sand you can get in garden departments for like 2$ a 50lb bag. 10 years and no problems.

Or for UK people, £3.99 for 15 kilos at Argos, that's what I use as well.
Play sand FTW, Calci-sand For the Bin.
