hey guys,
A new concern for my Lil panther. He will be exactly 3 mos. next week on the 25th, he is an ambilobe. I've had him for only a few days however, this morning when I was feeding him, I noticed that he missed a lot of his food.
I gave him 3 little baby silkies and his tongue kept missing them. I thought it was because they were sticking to the screen a lil too hard. But he missed a lot of the crickets as well. Like w/ one cricket, he shot at it 3 times and missed the whole 3 times. He kept getting closer and closer until he was finally able to stick it w/ his tongue. When it came to the silkies, he started scooping it up like other lizards do.
Anyways, should I be concerned? I know that when they are still young, they tend to still be working on their aim. Is this something that will just get better overtime? Please respond for I need to know if this is serious. Thanks ahead of time everyone.
