i caught a hatchling painted on a fishing trip, i have it in a rubbermaid container maybe 12" long and 8" wide with about 3 inches of water. a basking lamp, i can get a bulb that provides uv and heat right? so ne way, the lil guy wont eat. ive given him a piece of worm, two beetles, an earwig, and a box elder bug...the insects were as of today. why wont he eat? if he doesnt eat in the next few days, im gonna let him go, i live on a river, so that isnt a problem right? any help would be appreciated...thanks.
