My lil girl was sick and not eating. Trip to the vet seems to have worked. I saw her eat a mealie lastnight but shes not getting the concept that they are in a bowl for her and freeks out if I try to hand feed her still.

Tonight I put her and 4 mealies in a sweater box and periodically would stimulate worms to wiggle but shes more interested in the sweater box and how to get out of it.

Should I stick with this program? Otherwise mealies are just going in and coming out dead in her viv.

I know she has to be hungry...

Thanks

How old is she?

How long has she been like this?

One thing is you could try like a clear pudding bowl so she can see them.

Being in a box will only freak her out more.

You could also push down on the mealworms bottom (not the head)
and make them wiggle that way,that is what i had to do with my girl angel.

And she might just not be hungry,they sometimes wont eat for days then they'll eat a whole bunch.
