pop goes the cricket...

boy Jan 29, 2005 05:27 AM

So I was feeding my fimbriatus and lineatus tonight some crickets when something funny happened. I looked down into my female lineatus cage and was watching her forage around a bit. She spotted one cricket coated in trical and started to head over to it. She did her little butt wiggle thing and went to leap for the cricket with her mouth wide open only to have it meet her half way by jumping right into her mouth. She stopped short of her lunge like she was a little shocked and went on chomping away on it. It was funny to watch.

Anyone see the latest and greatest of ben around lately...

cheers
jason

sounds interesting. i had my frilled dragon catch a cricket as i was dropping it into the cage once... did kind of the same thing. i think it would be more funny with a lineatus though just because they're goofy looking.
