Treats should be 10% of their diet. The other 90%? Veggies, greens, and bugs. So if you feed an apple cube the size of their eyeball once a week, you’re golden. Twice a week? Greedy. But okay.
For baby dragons? Skip the apple entirely. They need protein, protein, protein—crickets and roaches. Apples are just sugary distractions. Wait until they’re adults (over 18 months). Then you can share your snack like a pal.
