Dexter’s mad at me. So for the past month the pet store hasn’t been able to get any dubia in except extra small. I did purchase a few of the small and he wouldn’t eat them. Apparently not worth his time. Lol I’ve been getting his crickets in bulk every week, but sadly no dubia. He keeps looking at his bowl than me, bowl and me, and thinking I’m punishing him for something as he never sees anything but crickets. I do have some phoenix worms I’m giving him here and there, but I’m trying to eek them out, too, as the next shipment isn’t schedule into the store until end of next week. Gah! That and I only give them to him as a treat, so yeah.
So far, the only additional offerings the pet store has had are meal worms. Nope, sorry. Dex has never had them and I don’t want to chance it. I am currently not ordering online as its frigid winter here and our village post office is only open for a few hours a day. It takes me a good two days to get any packages left there in between job and other duties and I’d be frantic if bugs/worms sat out in the mail box. Mail delivery never seems to come at the same time on any given day.
Today he actually looked at the crickets and turned his back on them. Literally! Gasp! Refused them! Stubborn boy! Thank goodness the store promised me some on Friday as I think he can outlast me on being stubborn. ‘Course he does eat his salads well and he’s got quite the belly so a day of not eating his crickets isn’t alarming . . . no worries.
