Update on Jill

[Preekoo]

Here's some updated photo's of my newest girl, Jill! She's so friendly and has really gotten use to me, much better personality than my boy, Leon.

Went ahead and threw in a pic of the big boy of right after I installed the mist king nozzle in his cage for the first time. Didn't get a T connector when I first bought it He was a little skeptical and kinda stared at it for a while. I came back in there and he was still starring at it 20 minutes later I'm sure he didn't know what the hell to think of it since he was so used to me giving him mistings xP

Your female looks a little thin. What are you feeding her and how are you gutloading?

Thats the problem ive been running into. Ive been having to feed her pin heads for a while. I know just got in my shipment of bigger crickets. They sure as hell took their sweet time getting here. But all of my feeders are gutloaded with cricket crack, fruits, and the fluker orange cubes. And all of my wax worms died on me, was gona use them to try and give her a lil fat. She wasnt the healthiest when I got her and ive been trying to nurse her back but ive been hitten some problems but I should be set up now, just a matter of time hopefully

AND she will NOT cup feed. I've tried every trick you could think of. I've had to start free ranging most of her feeders, and now that I've been putting bigger crickets in there I think she got a little intimidated by them I see her drinking and roaming around all the time though. And I let her free range on some plants I have hung up on my walls every other day. I don't know what to do with her : /

She's very cute!! Have you tried making a bug feeder out of a plastic jug instead of using a cup? My little Melleri won't cup feed either - but she will eat crickets from the jug feeder I made (pretty unprofessional job but it works!). She prefers shooting at sides of jug I guess to inside the cup. I hang it on the little tree branches in her free range or use a shower curtain ring to clip it wherever she happens to be.

I have standard medical tape on the backside of it for crickets to climb. The screen at bottom keeps them above any water inside from misting.

Thanks! I'll give it a try, or make something like it, it's a good idea Sorry for the late response, just worked for 9 hours
