I kept reading "mealworms" on websites, but my hesitation with them is the same as it would be with my beardies. Impaction issues you'd think right? I mean they can't be all that different? So I think I'll opt for some micro supers for him at this age in addition to the dubias. He did eat a few crickets.
He seems to be adjusting well. I am still waiting on humidity gauge. All the ones in Petco say they are at 60% in the box. This is the one I got for my dubia tank, and it said it was 70% humidity and it felt dry as a bone in there. I refuse to buy a defective gauge. Pet store should have them for me soon.
I am misting several times daily and he has about 1/3 of his tank as water. I use clean bottled water and change it the minute he goes pooh. I use the professional cleaner on his water dish and then rinse it well since he does drink out of it and then add the water. I also use a damp hand towel on part of top of his screen cover.
He did have a pooh where his urates were tinged with blood. I had talked to Tracie about running fecals on him, and was giving him a week to adjust to new home, etc. But I think with the blood am going to run fecal on first pooh I get and then treat accordingly. I hope I have the meds on hand for it or off to vet we go. I have Albon, Toltrazuril and Panacur. Will have to see. I think the little guy needs climbing sticks and was thinking that I should get some even if he has parasites. I was using disposable cage stuff (boxes for a hide/basking spot) but I could go get new sticks outside, soak them in bleach and bake them. If he poops on them I just have a little supply handy. He mostly poohs in his water anyway. It's not like they don't come by easily. Might settle him down a bit more. Just talked myself into that one.
