If anything she is a bigger handful (pun intended )
This lil girl never seems to run out of energy. Every time we go near her she goes crazy looking for bugs. Most times it involves her diving off her decor and running back and forth watching out hands, it's pretty funny to watch.

Boy do I remember these days with Ruby. Made me feel so used lol.

I think bearded time should've been negotiated regarding your worktime.

If it were possible, I would give 10 likes to your post.

It's hard for me to imagine! I compare everyone to Foxy, he always has a very aristocratic attitude towards food. He will never ask or run after food. It's me who runs after him with food, even when he was little it was like that. Although... He will run after locusts, he loses his mind when he sees them.

Now your describing Sinatra lol

I agree whole heartedly

This is amazing. I always thought that the way a beardies eats depends on how a human feeds it. Everyone has their own approach, some feed it by hand, some several times a day, some every other day. But you have ruined all my theories about this. I am sure that you feed everyone the same, but then why do they react so differently? I am confused.
Does Zsa Zsa get full when you feed it? I wonder if it is even possible to feed her so that it does not want to eat anymore? I am just interested in understanding and understanding how it works... Maybe I am overfeeding Foxy? Maybe that is why he does not have such an interest in food.
After brumation, he gained almost 100 grams more, although in my opinion he eats little. Although it is possible that he eats too many bugs and not enough greens...

I hand feed Ruby every day. She will occasionally eat out of a bowl but it's usually greens not bugs. She has a hard time with bowls. Sinatra I offer bugs by hand because for a while he would ignore them in a bowl, but lately he wants to "hunt" so I show them to him and let them go. He then stalks them and eats them. (By stalk I mean he watches them till they get close and then grabs them lol)
Zsa Zsa I feed everything except treats in a bowl. I love hand feeding but it becomes a time sink when you have several. So I've made it a point not to get her used to hand feeding. As far as getting full I'm pretty sure she would eat until she made herself sick. I think as long as something is moving she will keep eating. She eats all her greens most days also. I've never seen anything like it.

Thank you for such a detailed answer! I laughed so hard from some of your statements that I cried. (The one about Sinatra stalks his prey is so familiar to me ). Yes, Zsa Zsa is an amazing girl.
I'll tell you how Foxy eats. I give him bugs from his glass bowl, which I hold in my hands. He sees in advance how I count roaches near his terrarium and carefully watches the whole process, when I approach the terrarium with a bowl and open the door, he usually runs up to the place where I feed him, he knows what a glass bowl means and runs to it, I hold the bowl in my hand and he eats from it, I tilt it so that it is convenient for him to catch roaches. I give him locusts in the living room, you probably saw the video about hunting, I put the locusts 6-9 feet away from him and he sneaks up to them and catches them if they fly away. it looks very impressive. Foxy usually eats greens in the morning, but not always, I put him next to him and offer greens growing in pots, usually arugula, sunflower or pea sprouts, or clover or dandelion leaves. He eats all this about every other day, but I offer it to him every day

I do remember that video!!! He is the locusts wrangler lol.
Ruby and Sinatra both recognize the bug container but don't get excited. Zsa Zsa on the other hand goes nuts as soon as she sees them. She also knows the sound of the lid coming off the hornworms. Even if I'm hiding them from her sight she spazzes out when that lid comes off.
