Hello,

This can happen, unfortunately. Were the crickets possibly too large for her?
Do you feed her in her tank or do you place them in a plastic bin to feed her? Try just
putting a few out for her at a time, so it doesn't overwhelm her. I know she's an adult,
but maybe she might prefer smaller crickets, but I'm just guessing.
Does she interact with you outside of feeding times with you?

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
