[darkbalde666]

my bd leviathan is 7 months old aprox

he is not eating his live foods for the past few weeks

but he is eat his veg and fine and is verry active

viv is 4x2x2
uvb is arcadia 12% d3+
basking spot is 110
live foods are roach crixs marios hoppers all gut loaded

veg are endovine, escole, spring greens, bok choi, with a mix of good fruit on top

Mine is almost the same. Except he'll only eat live food when it's dead. Is this normal?

question 1: yes it is normal for them to take less intrest in live foods when they are more than 6 months old..... they eat 20% live food and 80% veggies so it is completely normal



question 2: no it is not normal for them to eat there live food dead....very not normal. try removing all your dead worms or crickets and only give him live ones

 

[Elythaele]

He doesn't eat the live ones. He just ignores them until I take them out for him to sleep, or they die and he'll eat them. He's under 6 months old, and I don't know what to do.

are u covering them (including the dead ones) with calcium????

 

[Elythaele]

Yeah, but the calcium powder doesn't seem to bother him.

do u feed him worms or crix???? how old is he??? how many times do u mist him in a day???? how often do u bathe him/her????? what kind of bulb do u use???? what wattage??? <------- very important questions
