eating questions

[bpdfs]

So i have put a small dish and have some mealworms in it. I have the larger mealworms this time.. He has not really gone to that dish yet? He knows its there but has not made his way to it and ate out of it.. it seems he is not eating like he would before, before he would eat all the time now its just whenever? Not really sure if that is normal or not?

I have been giving some super worms, it seems he only eat maybe 2 of those and goes back in his Den, guess maybe that fills him up?

I only put a few crickets in his cage and they walk around a while before he decides he wants to eat them?

just strange to me because before he would immideatly go after them?

is there something wrong?

Maybe he's just older. My adults eat every other day to every three days. If they eat 2 supers a day I'm satisfied. Where as my babies eat and eat and eat and eat every chance they get.

so the older they get the less food they want?

From hatchlings to adults, yes.
