8tay8 Mar 03, 2004 08:55 AM

the MOST my leo will eat in an entire day is 10. but, she will only eat 5-6 at a time, so i feed her 5 in the morning and 5 at night. all mealies are 24hr gutloaded. does anyone see any problems with this?

thanks!

i see no problems but..leos eat as meany mealies as they want..if he/she stops at 5 just leave it at that..you dont want to over stuff her, your choice, most people only feel leos at night when they're more active maybe if you just left them in a dish..if the leo is hungry enough they'll find it, this is just my opinion, take no offence to it, i feed my juvi albino as much as she can eat which is 11 at one sitting if she doesnt stops at 6 i leave it at that

If you think she isn't getting enough, try giving her a few crickets too. I've found that most juveniles can't resist crickets. The way they move makes them so tempting. LOL!
