I bought one about a month and a half ago, and am quickly realizing that I don't know what I'm doing. I think he is a Crucigera, and is probably about 3 inches.



Mostly my problem is with feeding. I have been feeding him crickets and mealworms, but he doesn't seem too excited about either (in fact, he quickly tired of the mealworms). I have never had him eat on his own. Instead I have to wait for him to open his mouth and pop them in (he really seems to hate when I try to force his mouth open).



After reading what you all have to say on this forum I realize that I should probably try earthworms or another kind of worm. The problem with that is... I have no clue about that sort of stuff. Where are they sold? How do you store them? How many do you buy at a time?



What feeding recomendations do you have?
