I recently acquired 1.2 brevs and they are SUCH a pleasure. Its like watching the cute phase of a baby cham for a lifetime. Anywho, just a few questions I have them in a large aquarium, I can't figure the size or dimensions but it is very adequate. I have a repti-glo 5.0 on them and was wondering how much do I feed them? I saw them eat about 4-5 crickets each, a few they ate were kinda big for them though but it was the smallest my local pet store had.



P.S. Few worries:

1. As I was getting the aquarium situated and the lights plugged in, I turned around and saw the little guys climbing out of their contained that they came in that I opened cause I was ready to put them in their new home. All 3 got on one edge and tipped the light container over and all 3 fell from a 4 foot drop onto tile floor. I almost fainted lol! I thought it was over for them but they got up and started roaming my kitched floor. I placed them in the cage and they ate. Should I worry?

2. Saw female eat 3 crickets shooting her tongue and then on the 4th she shot her tongue but it only went out about half an inch and about an inch away from the cricket itself. She did that for about 5 times until finally the cricket moved to her lol. Does that mean I'm feeding too big prey and she can't shoot very far because food is lodged? Should I worry?
