So, we've been hands off on the new kids and they appear to get along, are often sleeping next to each other (two males).
We got back Monday night - put them up and offered CGD - no worries if they didn't eat, figured they were stressed but it was there if they wanted it.
Tuesday night - CGD still.
Wednesday night - CGD and Phoenix worm - next morning, one Phoenix worm gone, later all gone from the deep dish.
Thursday night - CDG mixed with a bit of peach baby food and Phoenix worms - uh, what is this? Some how these darn worms can climb the side of the dish, and the sides are vertical. Worms climbing out of dish - maybe cresties didn't eat the worms Wednesday? Can't tell if wiggling ones on the bottom of viv are Wed or Thurs worms
Friday - no sign of worms, maybe they were eaten, maybe they are in the deep recesses of McCastle. Tonight going to drop four crickets in and see what happens. No reaction from cresteds - will never be able to get crickets out of McCastle without completely breaking it down - think cresteds will be fine.
So, all of this, and no licks that I can tell out of the CGD, so I'm concerned whether these guys are eating or not. I did witness one drinking water out of his shallow dish.
We're still not handling them at all. Should we handle them and offer off of a spoon?
