those are good tips, thank you! I will try them all for Xena!
Do you prefer silkworms over phoenix worms for nutrition? The silkworms have a fruity odor Im wondering if that turns her off from them! same with the butter worms with fruity smell.
I am trying to get Xena to gain some weight, the fact that she is pregnant and acting picky isnt helping. I wonder if its alright to feed her some of these liquid nutrients i have just to give her a boost during her gravid period,
Im going to purchase a scale to monitor her weight better.
Were you eating fruit and squirted some on your nose?:lol: The butterworms smell fruity, but the mulberry food does not smell fruity at all. For a gravid female I would prefer the silkworms. I would not use that if she is eating on her own. Just feed her as much as she wants of whatever she will eat. She is not acting lethargic is she? I would dust with D3 and MVI twice a week when gravid. Instead of dusting a whole meal in one day, I would split the dusting to half of the insects on two different days. Hope this makes sense. Actually, it would be best in general for all geckos.
