that sounds like a great switch, i wouldnt keep them only on mealworms its just something to give them a variety of choice, so they dont get bored of the same food too quickl.

thanks for the info on silks though ill see if i can get hold of some, as ou say the perfect treat really

i have started to make sure yoshi gets fed 1st when i put food in just to make sure that i do actually see her eat at least once a day, thats another thing i was meaning to ask about - i've read hundreds of diffrent posts suggesting different feeding methods and schedules - can i ask how oftern and how much you would suggest ?

they are only about 3-4 months old.
