He’s about 21cm long, not particularly chunky.

He’s only 6 months? Is it still normal?

He’s only 6 months old, so is that still normal?

This is my third post on here and always really helpful comments received. We’ve had our rankins since July. Started eating really well and got to a stage where he was nearly polishing off 3 boxes of crickets a week! Then he stopped eating? We switched to locusts to try but after a week of doing...

Oh! Not heard of those before, I might take a look. We really struggle with the crickets and locusts. I’m hoping we can get him onto the dubais when he’s older. I’ll ask our pet shop who supply all our bugs about BSFL’s. Thanks

Just to clarify, what are BSFL’s?

Sorry to sound a bit dim but what are BSFL’s? He is offered salad daily and perhaps takes a little but it’s hard to tell. He eats 6-8 mealworms and these are well loaded and we try to pick the best ones which have recently shed. We offer her crickets or locusts twice a day, he always tends to...

We have a rankins who is now almost 4 months old. We are still feeding crickets (as many as he’ll eat), twice a day with fresh veg and mealworms offered in between. How old does he need to be to reduce his feeding to once a day? Sometimes he eats kids at both sittings, sometimes he hardly eats...

My limited knowledge is that rankins are smaller. We’ve never owned either so can’t make a good comparison, as we’re learning about rankins as we go but I gather apart from size they are fairly similar.

Thanks. I’ve looked at Dubai’s but all the ones I can find online so far still sounds quite big to me? I will ask our local pet shop if they can add some to our order for Wednesday. Any other recommendations we’ll received.

Hi all, I’ve read a few threads and everyone seems really helpful. We are totally new to the reptile scene and recently got ourselves a rankins. He/she is now 7-8 weeks old. Diablo is pooing daily and mostly eating but I’ve read so many mixed things about food. The breeder fed all the babies...

Thanks for the link. Yeah, despite the fact he doesn’t appear to eat as much as I expected he does a poo at least once a day and it looks “normal”. There are some smaller crickets in the mix and he’s much happier when they’re provided for him.

It’s for my daughter, she’s 12. We didn’t even know about rankins until we started looking for a beardie. We liked the idea they were smaller.

How do I post in the rankins sun? I know some of his bugs are definitely too big. His first box was fine but the pet shop couldn’t get the small crickets so we had to make do with what they had. I’ve preordered small crickets arriving Wednesday.

Yes please.
