Plethora of Ackie questions

RAG66 Aug 08, 2004 11:02 AM

I just aquired two yellows and my oh my I think they are the balls now they hatched early july and already i can see a hierarchy between the two(Mars and Minerva) Mars being biggr and dominant and eating rat pup pieces worms and crickets with gusto. but minerva being a little bit smaller is intent on just crickets? Normal I ask? Ive had waters refuse anything but roaches neven at 3' and dums my mistake of course only except shellfish before I broke them of that habit. Recently though when I was thumbing through this months Reptiles I noticed Mini Mealworms different from the standard and apparently theyre almost 50% protein and move alot. I just orded 500 or so. Has anyone tried these they look great. I just want to pack the grams lol on minerva my supposed little girl. Anyway thanks for any and all input in advance

In my experience yes thats normal, and she should grow out of it. All of my hatchling kingorum and baritji, refused everything but crickets for the first couple of months of their lives.

BTW,
congrats on the new purchase
