Another person with a Pinkie Question!

jesseter Mar 05, 2004 10:54 PM

Well the Pinkies have been a hot topic lately. Now I just fed my girl a pinkie about two and a half weeks ago. She just layed eggs this past Sunday. My question is How often do you feed a pregnant female Pinkies??!! Any advice is very welcome. Thanks to all in advance!

Most people just feed there girls after they lay there eggs. This way the leo's can be healthy for the next clutch.

But other people will say, feed them as much of anything as they will eat. Fat'n them up!

I just tried to feed my leo's a pinky and they just got pissed. I can hand feed my females with anything and they know it is eatable. But they thought it was my finger and whe nthey did go for it, they let it go because of the screaming(poor thing) the male just bit it.
i had to flush the pinky.

I feed one or two pinkies, depending on how big they happen to be, after ever clutch of eggs.
