Rexi my dragon is not eating her crickets like normal...she would eat like 25-40 a day! For the past week and a 1/2 she will only eat like 12 but will eat all of greens.
She ran out of Supers..so I ordered her 250 last week along with hornworms.
She ate like 12 superworms, and 4 hornworms just a little bit ago...she loves her hornworms; she eats them right out of my hand.
I'm wondering if she just doesn't have the use for crickets anymore; I know i don't. I'm tired of the noisy, stinky things lol
is this possible for her just to not want them anymore?
Can I feed her dubias as a staple?
If so where is a good place to order some?
My Puff would rather starve than eat a cricket even though they were the staple for the first 8 months of her life. She slowly worked her way down to 1 or 2 a feeding and then not even 1. She would turn her head and close her eyes. Little snot! It drove me nuts Then I ordered some phoenix worms which she loves but my Mojo detests them. I really can't win with these guys. They will both eat dubia but I can't get used to them. Lol
I was in your position before I switched from crickets to Dubia roaches. I can confidently say that it's one of the best choices you'll make regarding feeders. Don't deal with the hassles of crickets...save yourself some stress and just try an order of Dubia.
I think she just doesn't want them anymore...she turns her head and just ignores them but like i said she will eat Superworms, horworms, and her greens like normal.
So...I ordered 200 nymphs yesterday and should be here next Tuesday!
I know she will be excited over them from what everyone is telling me..and i'm excited for her but not for me; i don't really have a thing for roaches lol
I was surprised with my first order of small dubia They look SO much like the little *rollie pollies* (as we called them as kids...'pill bugs' actually) that they did not bother me at all.
Breaking into them easily and slowly as with nymphs will help make it easier to deal with the biggies when you need them LOL
Or.......stick with small/mediums and just feed more haha. More $ that way, however.
