Especially rich in Beta-carotene and Vitamin A, Carrots provide a balance many green veggies don\'t offer.   Carrots can influence the coloration in dragons, providing for a deeper, richer and most importantly healthier skin condition.  DON\'T use baby carrots.  While I can\'t confirm for sure, I have read that they use preservatives to keep baby carrots appearing fresh in the package.  To avoid any negative influences on your dragon from these potential preservatives, just use fresh whole carrots.   How to Prepare for Dragons: Ideally, using a cheese grater with a medium sized grate will provide the best means of preparing carrots for dragons to consume.  Avoid cutting into discs or other shapes that may become a choking hazard and instead cut into longer stringy stands no more then an 1.5 inches in length.  Using the cheese grater can make quick work of an otherwise tedious task.  How Often to Feed Your Dragon Carrots Carrots aren\'t really a staple to dragons diets.  I don\'t believe many dragons would come across carrots in the wild, and as such you will not need to feed carrots to your dragons regularly.  They do make a great nutritional supplement when looking for the most out of your veggies, and feeding your dragon carrots for a bout a week out of the month will get your dragon plenty of the additional nutritional value carrots provide without going over board.   Truthfully, carrots don\'t offer any great risk of toxicity for your dragon, and you could technically feed them carrots in every salad without harm.  The point of introducing carrots and similar veggies though is to maximize nutritional intake naturally without relying on as heavily on powdered substitutes.  Because of this logic, it makes sense to simply continue cycling through other supplemental veggies for balance.   Have any questions?  Let us know in the comments below!
