Crickets?
Those are beneath him!! I tried that once and he quickly grabbed one. Held it in his mouth for at LEAST 10 minutes while contemplating whether I was trying to poison him with that vile creature or what.
He finally put on a fine performance of choking down that disgusting thing and proceeded to ignore all others. From then on out.
He used to LOVE Dubia roaches though. Back when he would poop into (or throw down) his food dish filled with Crested Gecko Diet (no matter which kind, and I had them all, about 18 or so..) And yes, he did poop into it. Or throw it on the floor.
A few month ago he decided that Dubias weren't all that (after I spent money on buying a whole bunch more) and proceeded to eat his Crested Gecko Diet. Of course he demands his favorite mix of flavors. Or else it lands on the floor again.
Yes, I'm just his lowly servant.![]()
