Answer
 HI Richard,
  If you have pogona minima, it must mean you are living in Australia.  All species of bearded dragon are considered omnivores, so they need live food, such as woodies, locusts, crickets, silkworms, and hornworms, and a calcium rich salad.  Good dark greens like dandelion, spring greens (collards) mustard greens, turnip tops, and peelings or gratings of winter squashes, sweet potato and chopped green beans.
