WITH RESPECT TO THE ADVICE THAT FIRESIDE GAVE, i WOULD CONCUR ALSO THAT BECAUSE THIS IS A YOUNG ANIMAL IT COULD GO EITHER WAY.

yOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET SMALL CRICKETS FROM YOUR LOCAL PET SHOP. wITH RESPECT TO MEALWORMS fIRESIDE IS RIGHT, HOWEVER THERE ARE MINI MEALWORMS WHICH ARE NOT MEALWORMS AND FINE FOR YOUR HOENDED LIZARD, i ALWAYS PREFER TO FEED FRESHLY MOLTED MEALWORMS. HOWEVER BECAUSE OF THE CONFUSION HERE i WOULD FOLLOW fIRESIDES ADVICE SO THERE ISN'T A MISTAKE MADE ABOUT MEALWORMS GIVEN OTHER INSECTS AVAIABLE. iF YOU SHOULD DECIDE TO KEEP HIM UP THEM MAKE SURE YOUR TEMPS ARE UP AS RECOMMENDED. i THINK IF YOU ARE ATTENTIVE THE ANIMAL SHOULD DO WELL. i HAVE FOUND THAT SMALL WAX WORMS MAKE A GOOD MEAL AS WELL M THEY ARE SOFT HAVE SOME FAT IN THEM AND MOISTURE.



oNE THINK i SEE COMING FROM BOTH OF OUR ADVICE HAS TO DO WITH HYDRATION, i WOULD IN SOMEWHAY SPARY THE ROCKS OR PLANTS IN THE CAGE AND SEE IF HE WILL DRINK, BUT THIS ALSO MEANS HE NEEDS TO BE HEATED UP SO HE'S ACTIVE. sO EHAT EVER CHIOCE YOU MAKE i WOULD WANT TO MAKE SURE HE'S TAKEN A DRINK.
