    Re: Finally - 5 years late: An introduction to Cleo, Carra, and Kayla

    I understand this time of year LG's can go off feed, and that's fine, and I will report if she starts eating regularly again. In the meantime, she looks good and still has a plump tail and good body definition.

    I did some research and although she doesn't like PhoenixWorms particularly, want to try spike worms. They are supposed to be similar to waxworms in look, smell, and presumably taste, but much more nutritious - more protein and less fat.

    I'll see if she likes those. I am sure Carra and Ferry will .

    Below is the site I got them from and some info on them.

    I hate that you’re still having some feeding issues dakski. My LG is off food right now as well and even though I know they go off this time of year, it doesn’t make it any less stressful.

    I had a little luck with freshly shed mealworms but even then he only took one, so if spike worms work for you let me know!
