Hi-Thanks to everyone for helping Spike catch up on his feeding! Our little fellow has gained so much weight and has visually gotten so much bigger! We are amazed that the nameless nation wide Pet...store would have had us starving our beardie! We bought 500 crickets from georgiacrickets.com...a great website!
So now we are planning on being away 4th of July for two nights...and I'm nervous! I was thinking of feeding Spike all of his crickets he would eat in a day before we leave (in the afternoon-we have a few hours drive). Then leaving TWO bowls of salad (he's used to ONE daily) with Reptiworms inside- He's used to searching for his worms in broccoli (and then winds up eating some broccoli...;-) so I am hoping that he will eat when he is hungary and search for the worms then. PLus leave the beaded dragon food either in the same dish or maybe a 3rd dish? We should be gone a total of 48 hours...we have the lights ready to be on a timer but no one to look in on him ;-(
Any thoughts on our plan or any advice on what has worked for you if you had to leave for a few nights?
Thanks!
