Hello~
I'm new to all of this. I need some ideas on how to feed my daughters baby. She's about 6". Not sure how old. We've had her since Sunday.
I'm having a heck of a time feeding her crickets. I put a few in with her in her 40 gallon tank. She ate some. I went back a bit later and thought she ate them all. Same thing Monday, but then I lifted up the carpet a few were hiding under it. I tried putting her in a small carrier to feed. I only put in 4 crickets. She ate one then tried to scratch her way out of the container. This afternoon I removed everything from her tank but the carpet, fed her one at a time(crickets were still trying to hide) I thought maybe that would make it easier for her to catch them. She only ate 3 and then went into panic mode. What do I do? Keep trying the smaller container? It's 9"x6"x6.5". Is that too small?
She's very skittish so I'm trying not to stress her out too much.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks!
