hi well i did it now . yep i went and got little irwin Spoiled! yes i said it and yes i did it . we have been using stage one baby food when crickets have been far and few between for cooper and irwin , cooper eats with no problem , did start with feeding it from a spoon with him but he would rather eat from the bowel , messy yeah but it is coopers thing . irwin , oh maybe every so often will eat from the bowel when they have the baby food , but for the most part it is okay , i see it in there , interesting but looks at me like aren't you forgetting something ??? like maybe the spoon??? you want me to be a big dragon and eat on my own ??? oh noes, i want my spoon!!!!! even getting that way about greens at times , i'm not totally in my masters grasp , but close , i will give in and yes hand feed some greens and get the spoon for my little master . had to laugh tonight , feeding off the spoon and trying to get him to eat from the bowel while he was on my son's bed , picture please , empty spoon in hand , hungry baby beardie and moving spoon away , hungry baby beardie starts chasing after empty spoon , good beardie slave refils spoon and beardie master is happy . wish my camera didn't get broken so i could have videoed , oh i am a slave , i know it no denying it .
