Bowl feeding

blueta Apr 29, 2007 04:13 PM

I just purchased a veiled from LLL yesterday at a show and he isn't the most voracious eater. I have some crickets in a cup and he doesn't seem to really bother with them. I saw him eat one out of it even though they are in plain sight. I would like to let the crickets free roam around the cage, but it's a very well planted 70 gallon size enclosure. I'm afraid he won't find the crickets before their powder all falls off. Any suggestions? Also check out my other post about dusting the crickets with rep-cal calcium w/D3 everyday if it's safe. Thanks!

Well some time has passed and I guess he adjusted now because he's eating out of a bowl and getting his supplements now. Just thought I would give an update.
