dragonvet Oct 20, 2005 10:24 PM

well i now have 4 new baby's to care for.i still have to make some humid hides in for them i have them in my 29 gal seperated by 3 cardboard cut outs.i was wondering should i keep them seperated or should i let them have the hole enclosure to roam together?is tiny mealworms ok 4 main diet?i breed mealies so ther are plenty to go around.also wax worms one every knight untill they get some fat on em. they are very small right now about the size of my pinky finger.i thing i have a jungle.aberant,patternless.and im for sure a albino.i guess ill find out for sure when they get a little older.i got'em all from petco.hopefully i will have more females than m.so i can breed em when they are ready. any help on feeding/and seperating or not would be great.

I agree about the waxworms, they are awfully fatty on top of being addicting. I don't give waxworms to my hatchlings or juvies. Small mealworms left in a bowl are fine and they love small crickets (1/4" size). I also feed my hatchlings/babies small superworms, they love those and they are a little better for them than mealworms. Good luck with your babies

P.S. Where are the pics, ya gotta show them off !! LOL
