Leachianus Diet

JackieP Apr 09, 2004 02:02 PM

Hi,

I was wondering what everyone who has a Leachie feeds them (or rather what will their Leachie eat). I have a seven month old r. leachianus henkeli who will only eat apple and mango or banana baby food. I mix this with T-Rex leachianus diet. He/she won't touch anything else I offer him, including crickets. Is this normal or do I have a fussy eater? Any advice will be appreciated. Here is a photo of him/her.

My Leachies don't like live prey, either. I give them Leachianus Diet mixed with Gerber Mixed Fruit Yogurt babyfood and they are growing like weeds.

Thanks for the reply Anthony. We can't get that brand in the UK so I now feed him our equivalent. He loves it - he empties his bowl every other night!

Thanks for the advice.
