I'm gonna look into silk worms. I saw my store sells them dead in a package but he likes something that moves. Not quick like a cricket, more like those girls that trip over nothing and crawl away from the killer. He likes the slow crawlers ??????

Ok so I got him silkworms. I wanted to try that can of silkworms first... Turns out its silk worm pupas. But he dgaf lol so long as I make it look alive he goes CRAZY for them. He got so bug happy he bit me. ?? scared the hell outta me more than it actually hurt. I think he's decided he LOVES the can of silk's.

And he had his first Hornworm!!!! It took 10 minutes for him to eat it!!! It moved too slow. I had to make it look more alive. But he ate it and the next day he started to shed. ?

my new baby hated crickets to.. wouldn't even look at them or go after them. was only eating 3-5 a day, got some dubias and now he's eating 2-3x in those daily.. anywhere from 15-25 a day. ended up flushing at least 3 dozen crickets because even my crested gecko turned his nose up at them.

If Dubias are illegal, look into discoid or red runner roaches.. BSFL (Black Soldier Fly Larvae)

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

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
