And also, don't feed them as many mealworms as I am assuming you are. Crickets are a good staple, but switch up to silk worms and super worms as well and maybe a few meal worms every 2 or 3 weeks. And also, you haven;'t mentioned gut loading. Are you gut loading your feeders??? Personally...
Im glad you are deciding to turn things around. A lot of people would just read the replies and realize that some people are quite frustrated with you and never return to see where this post has gone.. Did you see the post about the exo-terra electrolytes or know about pedialyte soaks...
hahahah no one's a sissy. People have their own lil "things" about themselves. lol I believe I am going to get some Dubia and see how it goes I found a few websites and I got a pm speaking of someone on the forum who sells Dubia. All is well and well is all.
Thank you... all your words are into consideration guys. I will make sure to keep posted what his diet turns into... Its been primarily crickets, super worms and silk worms... but I may just find a beetle or roach person and rid of crickets. : )

That is the greatest story. Hahaha Love it. In a nutshell and not to swoop on the discussion, years ago in 8th grade, my Science teacher had reptiles of all sorts in the classroom and would often let us students hold them during class and a blue tongued skink snuck into my backpack. I...

He's 4 months... I got him when he was 2 months and did too much research to handle (never enough research!) within a a few months before i built the reptarium and purchased him from Jim at CC.
