Latigo, gender unknown, is one of my 2 beardies. He's the youngest, and a leather back. His viv sits right next to my desk, and we have a lot of interaction during the day. I think s/he may love me almost as much as I love him :-D.
Anyway, his usual diet consists of small dubia roaches, large Phoenix worms, and the occasional cricket, in additional to a daily fresh bowl of salad, which he likes, but not as well as his dubia roaches!
So one day, I fed him 4 large crickets by hand, using tongs, because I really hate touching insects with mouths. He scarfed 3 down, but the 4th got away as he attempted to gobble it down. An hour or so later, I found it, here:
Lattie didn't care about him being on his nose, and the cricket lived to be eaten another day :lol: .
