Thanks for the tips!

While they are doing well with very small crickets and fruit flies, they are going through them at a high rate of speed, so this might be a way to use somewhat larger crickets that I have to buy for my other herps.

I started out with six and a couple of weeks ago I found one dead with the tail completely gone. Could have that been a fratracide? I didn't find the tail anywhere.

Since then I have separated them into a group of three and a group of two. How much to I need to warry about agression at this age? I saw one seem to attack another smaller one a few days ago. Should I put the smallest one by himself? They do seem to keep each other company at times.

Thanks for any info!
