    Thank you so much for addressing that really misleading commercial that harms snakes and those of us who love them. So cool you got over your fear of them!

      Hi John! Bearded Dragons really benefit from fresh veggies and alive bugs. I view the B Buffet as more of an emergency food item. For example, you lost power and didn't have the ability to give them fresh veggies, it's something you could offer. Since we're on the subject, I do really like the Repashy multi-vitamin w/ calcium they sell (it has a leopard gecko on the label), it's the one I use for all my reptiles. I'm glad you got your bearded dragon, it sounds like you rescued them from a sad situation. I hope this vid helped on tank set up. I did make a video on bearded dragon diet, I can drop a link below if you haven't seen it.
      I did some research and found a couple bug suppliers in the UK that may be helpful. I would try a variety of bugs and veggies, what have you tried?

      @johnthayre8088- I'm so sorry about your dog. I would recommend checking out the Facebook group Bearded Dragon Knowledge. The owners have great info and the admins are helpful. I currently do admin for them. My instinct is to check husbandry (enclosure setup including lighting), go over diet, and ask additional questions to see what could be going on. Sorry to direct you elsewhere, but I would really want to see that your dragon makes a full recovery, and I haven't been in your shoes with my dragons health wise.
      I'm happy though to try to help, I just think the Bearded Dragon Knowledge group on Facebook will help you better with your situation.

      Also, the vet you took your dragon to, are they an exotic vet? And did they do an exam and fecal sample?
