    G- man's weight

    well i started feeding grendel crickets dusted with calcium every 4 days, with his cgd always available. after i week i decided to weigh him. fatty weights, 4 grams. not quite sure is that is good for being born in late may/early june. hopefully all these crickets he;s eating and the cgd will bulk him up a little. i am going to order some phoenix worms once i find a nice breeder.

    feeding crickets does help them to grow faster, just makes sure he is still eating some cgd and not holding out for the crickets. 4 grams at his age is just fine.

    i never really see him eating it, and even so he would eat so little i wouldn't notice. but he's a poopin machine. it's pretty funny to watch, he pulls his tail sideways and raises his but in the air (kind sad that its amusing for me). i take it since he pops even when i had him on crickets once a week he is eating it. i started dusting his crickets with the cgd to get a taste, and i had no calcium.

    when i take him out i dab a little on my finger and he licks it off, thats how i make sure he's eating.
