Feeding my new Baby!....Just a quick question

madlady Jul 21, 2003 05:34 PM

Just got our newest baby this weekend at the white Plains, new york show. She'd such a doll.she's about 4" long and quite fisty.
she is eating well even eats her veggies like her big brother. she doesn't seem that interested in crickets right now. the one's i bought were small enough for her. she likes the wax worms very much.I know they are very high in fat so the big guy doesn't get them much but would it be alright to feed them to her for a week or so while trying to get her to eat the crickets.
like i said she is already eating her veggies with no trouble
thanks for the help : )

...the fat content is way too high. Also, she would more than likely become so accustomed to them that she would refuse any kind of live feeder other than the wax worms. It's best to just be patient & keep trying with the crix--she'll catch on.
