Well seeing as it's almost a year since Pepper has had much of an appetite I figured it's about time I found out what's going on. In the last couple of months he's been eating even less! It started as a dislike for veggies, and then he slowed on eating insects for winter and I thought as he was sleeping it was all brumation related right?
Well it's now nearing the end of summer, and the stubborn dude will eat 3-4 supers a week IF I'm lucky. Only other things he's interested in are caterpillars and witchetty grubs (which of course are rare).
That said he hasn't lost much weight, has the same attitude as always and doesn't appear to be in any distress. He poos fine when he eats, they appear to be healthy.
His temps are correct, using the fake grass as substrate, UV light is changed every ten months or less.
He only eats superworms, when I can't dust these enough I've been giving him some liquid calcium to keep up (once a week). No greens/veggies/fruit in a long time.
He's over two years old and 49cm in length.
Please help? I have no Idea what he's doing! :roll:
