I've noticed that my Dillinger only responds to hand feeding. Is it healthy to hand feed? Or could it present a problem later on down the road?

its only unhealthy if you get bitten. lol
all mine have been hand fed from the time they were able to eat superworms. how old is he? if he's still young it would be preferable to have him eat on his own so he doesnt get any lazier than a bearded dragon already is but as long as he is fed proper amounts and his weight is monitored, i say he is fine.

I dont have a clue as to his age. But he is just about 11 inches. Still a little guy, but he's growing like a weed.

Okay, so it's not just my imagination, they are lazy then lol? Because he will sit there and wait for the roaches to run right next to him. It works,but if they are on the other side, there really is no reason he will go for them. I just thought maybe I was imagining this. My gu doesn't wait more than a few seconds to get food, I hand feed him sometimes and as soon as his tongue hits the air, and he knows their is food, he walks right over. Stoli, not so much, he just watches from his rock, once in a while he will go down and eat one, if it's close enough lol.
