more babies ..too small

[austinl01]

I'm having trouble getting one of my little ones to eat anything but live crickets. Help!

Tell me about it. I have 9 now. Tomorrow, I have to completely tear up their aquarium to find a couple I haven't seen the last head check. I want to see each one at least every week. My first, a month old now has gone from 9g to 12.5g, and is noticibly larger already.

Try some reptomin floating. Soaked soft. Mine seem to like it.

Thank you. I do always put a few pices of the small reptomin in when I'm feeding them. I saw the bigger one nibble on a piece, but not the little ones yet. They're so darn tiny.....

Today I went outside and lifted up every board, stone, and weed, and NO pill bugs. So, I had to order 50 from CarolinaPetSupply. I can't believe I'm buying pill bugs! I put a load in my older Three Toed baby because she's still inside for the Winter, so I don't want to take any of hers. Hopefully they will eat some of these.

give them a place to swim i've found most of the hatchlings in the wild in swampy/creek areas

Everyone is finally eating. They are eating everything I give them, and even taking nibbles from strawberries, and melon.

Yes, good news for you Terry!!! Bad news for that worm, but good news for you!!!

Anthony, you can imagine how tiny they are. That is a little wax worm.

Mine have started to eat wax worms, just wish the worms moved more, lol
