50% Insects 50% Greens

[Vanesssa]

My beardie is 12inches around 5-6 months. How do I know what 50% greens is? My beardie loves green beans and sweet potato. What would be 50% in beans and cubes of sweet potato. I don't want my lady to starve.

Diet should be 80% insects since she is so young -- 20% greens --- please add other greens like collards turnips kale or mustard greens to the salads along w/ your green beans and sweet potato

Right but how much should she be eating? What is 20% greens for that age? ie x amount spinach x amount beans.

Hm-m-m. . . I see what you're saying. I'm thinking this us not an exact science. You figure out appx. how much your animal is going to eat, then because she's young, you should offer more insects, volume-wise, than greens. So, looking at the pile of food you think she'll eat, 80% of that pile should be insects
