Yes, bearded dragons can eat grapes as a healthy treat, but there is a catch. Grapes are safe for bearded dragons to eat in moderation as part of their diet. For those who have pet reptiles at home, it is important that you know which fruits and vegetables they can or cannot eat. Grapes are among the fruits that bearded dragons can eat. However, it is best to feed them with small amounts of grapes in moderation. In addition to being a healthy treat for bearded dragons, grapes also have many other benefits. For example, they provide important vitamins and minerals such as calcium, iron, magnesium and phosphorus which are beneficial not only to bearded dragons, but also to humans. Grapes contain a compound called resveratrol that has antioxidant properties and is good for the heart. This can be beneficial not only to bearded dragons, but also to humans especially those who lead sedentary lifestyles. Grapes can be harmful though if they are too ripe or not ripe enough. If you choose to give your dragon grape then it is best that they do not have any seeds. If a seed is swallowed, the dragon might choke on it which can also lead to death. Grapes should be washed before being given or else they might contain pesticides and other chemicals that are not good for your reptile. Bearded Dragons can eat grapes as long as they are properly prepared and served in small quantities. Grapes can be given as a treat or to confront an upset stomach in some cases. Other than that, they are not good for your dragon and they should have them only in small amounts. Bearded dragons do not need grapes to survive but many of them might like their taste which is why you should feed it in moderation. Other Fruits Bearded Dragons Can Eat Can Bearded Dragons Eat Nectarines Can Bearded Dragons Eat Blackberries Can Bearded Dragons Eat Dragon Fruit Can Bearded Dragons Eat Red Grapes? There is a big difference between white and red grape, and that's why we need to look at each of them separately. What we know for sure is that while the red ones might be good for your dragon, you should avoid giving it white grapes at all costs. Grapes are packed with sugar, and these reptiles need a lot of water to live. If they eat grapes, then they might end up with an upset stomach or even dehydrate as a result. Their digestive system is simply not evolved to eat grapes. The sugar inside them can cause problems such as bloating and diarrhea so it would be best to avoid giving red grapes. Can Bearded Dragons Eat Purple Grapes? The same goes for purple grapes. In fact, Bearded Dragons don't need grapes at all. They can eat them if they want to, but there are much better choices that you could offer them instead of grapes to keep their diet healthy and balanced. If you want to feed grapes, then make sure that they are either seedless or cut in half without the seeds. Can Bearded Dragons Eat Green Grapes? There is nothing wrong with giving your dragon green grapes especially if it's seedless. Again, these reptiles need a lot of water to survive, and grapes are mostly made out of it. So, offering green grapes could help dragons that drink too much and might become bloated and sick as a result. Can Bearded Dragons Eat Yellow Grapes? Their nutritional value is based on the color of the grape because different colors have different benefits for your dragon. Yellow grapes are more sweet than green ones, and their sugar content is minimal. But still, if you offer them too much then it could cause problems. Bearded Dragons should not eat yellow or any other type of grape unless it's just a small treat every now and then that will be given at least once a month. Can Bearded Dragons Eat Black Grapes? There is no difference between the nutritional value of black grapes and green ones, so you can offer them to your dragon as long as they are seedless. As for red grapes, they are better for dragons than white ones but both should be avoided anyway. How to Prepare Grapes for Your Bearded Dragon? When preparing grapes for other lizards, you should remove the skin first to avoid them choking. However, this part is edible for dragons and they might even like the taste of it which means that you don't need to peel them or remove anything before offering your reptile grapes. However, make sure that you wash the fruit first before cutting it in half. How Often Can I Feed My Bearded Dragon Grapes If you prepare grapes yourself, then make sure that the amount is small. The second rule is to offer these reptiles fresh fruit only once or twice a month because many fruits are high in sugar which can cause problems for your dragon.
