That's a great idea! I will try that this weekend

The reason I am using the heat is because I accidently purchased the small ones, 300 of them, so I need them to grow a little bigger. Usually I keep the bigger ones at room temp.

LESSON LEARNED! SFL love the heat. I put them next to my roach enclosure last night to keep them warm and all of them were at the top of their container this morning trying to get close to the heater. A lot of them are really tiny so it was like playing with maggots (eww). They are very...

He's still deciding what fruits and veggies that he likes. I like to change it up every week. Last week it was mustard greens and dandelion greens with squash, banana and mango. This week, it's collard greens with about 6 sfl sprinkled on top for breakfast and he usually eats about 20 sfl at...

Is obesity even possible at this age? He looks a little chunky, should I be feeding more greens and less bugs?

Hi there! I have a fussy eater as well and he's about the same age too! The only way I can get him to eat greens is to trick him by putting worms on the top of his salad. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

Thanks! This is our first, so we learn new things every day about each other. The vet said he's healthy too even though lately, I can't get him to chase anything. He wants to sleep all day, doesn't want to bask, stays in the cool side or under a hide, even gets irritated with me for waking...

Thanks!
