Karl - ever have a slow starter?



I hatched out a male yb firefly last September. He ate once and then didn't eat for 4-5 months. I force fed him a few times to kepp him going and was ready to give up. Then a light bulb must have gone on and he started eating and hasn't refused a meal since. Now he is a bit over 300gms and starting to get interested in the ladies. He may yet mate this season....



Never say never.......
