Heat the oven to 425°F with the rack set to the center position.
Leave small carrots whole, cut larger/thicker carrots in half.
Add the carrots to a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss a few times to coat.
Place the carrots on a large rimmed baking sheet in an even layer. Place in the oven and roast until fork tender and slightly brown, about 25-30 minutes, tossing occasionally.
While the carrots are roasting, add the melted butter and both types of honey to a small bowl and whisk together until well combined.
Carefully remove the pan from the oven and drizzle with the honey mixture. Toss a bit to coat and place back in the oven for 5 more minutes.
Transfer the carrots to a serving plate and garnish with chopped dill, crumbled feta, and pepitas.
