So..... Spike won't seem to eat his silks unless they are free ranging. And he's not eating them right away. I think he might have become stuck on BSFL and crickets. He ate at least 1 silkworm that I saw yesterday, but only one of the free ranging ones. I put a few to free range today, but he hasn't eaten them yet, and I have to leave for a little while. Are there any reasons why I should NOT free range a few silkworms? I will look for them to remove once I get home and he's surely done eating. But Just wanted to see what everyones thoughts are here, especially in case I can't find them all when I get home.
The only other thing that is free ranging is hornworms which...... he isn't eating either Really surprised at this as he won't touch them. But that is just 1-2 and so far they've been pretty easy to remove.
Side note: If anyone has any tips for me to feed the horns and silk to Spike please let me know. For some reason he just wont eat them out of any dish. I even put some with the BSFL and he literally picks the BSFL around the silks/horns.
When he first arrived I easily fed him 5 silkworms by just placing them on branches. But ever since his BSFL have come and he started eating those ..... it's like he wants nothing to do with the silks. Sometimes they even crawl on/under him and he just kind of shrugs them off lol.
