Abby is not a big eater period! not like the leopard geckos that hunt down the crix......

I have occasionally seen her eat them, i leave crix food and they also eat the baby food so they arent looking to nibble on abby....

she comes out everyother day and nibbles some baby food off my finger and i leave a dish that doesnt seem to get eaten very much, lick lines every so often that are obvious.....

I also leave some day gecko food until the crested diet is available all over, the crix also seem to enjoy it and its probably not a bad gutloading for them either.

can relate......

:It seems that when I drop crickets into the Crested's enclosure I can do a *head count* two days later and still find the same amount in there :( I am also offering baby food. Do any of you put the crickets in some kind of open container inside the enclosure to make sure the crickets stay in one place?
:Sorry for the newbie question..I am used to my snakes grabbing prey as soon as they smell it :) These cuties are so incredibly different..I am hooked :)
