I just bought some Gerber squash. Can I try to feed it to them on a spoon? Does it have any health benefits? Thanks!

Your funny, your a good MOM, a little worry wart, but a good MOM !

I don't know if you can get them to eat it off a spoon, or at all, you can try !

Usually we use squash as one very nutritious food, IF you have a very skinny or sick lizard that is not eating. With a syringe they more of less have to eat it !

So just offering it to them as a treat, you can try and see if they like it !

Some lick baby apricots, and other fruits, by themselves. But some never go near it ! Its worth trying, its all good for them

How is the spoiled couple?

You know some people say I'm spoiled too......Bam Bam is moving around the cage in slow motion right now....it is really weird to watch since he is the fastest critter I know. It's like he is carefully thinking out each move he makes.....weirdo!! Theyre both shedding every few weeks. Thanks for asking Eve

Okay this is where it comes from.....as I was feeding my lizards my mom said "be careful not to give them too much squash...it has more calories than crickets and worms." She said this because when babies go from milk to baby food doctors warn you not to feed them too much. She also warned me not to feed them ice cold baby food from the refrigerator because babies need food warmed. LOL So....does it matter if they eat a lot and if they eat it cold? Pebbles really seemed to like it.....Bam Bam seemed uninterested. You guys are the best!!

too cold, I dont think they would like.
Nice room temp would be fine, remember to get out the finest chia, to serve it on too, LMAO

Oh and have you given any thought to desert? LOL

Later buddy !
