Yea i took my little guy in too for the winter season. I plan to release him back into my watergarden come this spring. Ive offered him food once so far and he didnt take it. Figured id let him settle for the 1st couple days before i tried getting him to eat. Today was the 1st day i offered food but no success so i will try again tomorrow. I put 2 small sized meal worms in the water and let them float and wiggle around for a little over an hour. Im going to research a little more tonight and look into some food options for hatchlings, any suggestions are welcome.
