Hey, I just want to say thanks for making the strategy page for feeding picky alternas. I am really finding it in good use!

Anyways, I saw the lizard jar tip where you would grind up lizards in a glass jar. Would plastic effect the integrity of the lizard scent you think? I'm afraid the plastic smell would alter it, but 15 seconds probably won't effect anything I hope.

...or you can just use a glass jar?

Lol Mike, the plastic jar I am using is super nice. I can't seem to let it go. I am just being an idiot right now. Besides all the glass jars are used by my family's stinky asian herbs and it might ruin the scent even if I clean it out real well! =)Trust me!!! Nice quote by the way! LOL

Tony,
You're welcome. I'm glad someone found it useful. I imagine that the plastic jar will work fine without leaching any plastic smell but you will have to try it and see how it works. If you have problems with plastic let us know and we'll make note of it.

I think I have two more tips to add to that list, but I have to dig them out first.

good luck raising the little one(s).

Yeah, I'll let you know how that goes when I get the chance to. I don't think it will effect anything at all, most likely.
