Eating Question

Hello!!

haven't been on in a bit. All has been going pretty well. Whorf is about 7 months now. This past month he has gone almost completely vegetarian. He loves his greens which I put powedered vits on....but maybe only eats a few roaches a week.

I've changed out his light just recently because it was due to be changed. The light was changed after the change in eating habits. His growth seems average and nothing of concern that i can see.

I know that as the grow up that they eat more greens/veggies and less protein...I was just alarmed with the big difference I noticed in such a short time frame.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi and Thanks for the great update!:) I wouldn't be alarmed or concerned with his change..fact of the matter is that these guy and girls know far better than we what they need and as long as they are eating then it's a good thing indeed! Eating is generally a sign of a happy, secure creature...it's when they decide to turn off food period that a bit of alarm is called for because that can signal distress.
Have a great weekend!!
