Hello!

She means that she feeds her BD in a separate enclosure than the one that her BD lives in. It is not suggested to do this with a newly acquired BD until it is well acclimated, if done at all.

I've got a cricket keeper as well, but also a 10 gallon fish tank. (Crickets housed in the 10 gallon.) I use a cricket keeper to feed Allie her crickets. She's bigger and to avoid unwanted guests from sleeping with Allie and feasting on her, I feed her outside the tank. What I do is shake some into a large cricket keeper, sprinkle some calcium powder on them, take off the top, lay the cricket keeper down on it's narrow side, and let Allie do the rest. She'll go right in there, and eat them up. Allie's unique when it comes to eating her crickets.

Some do manage to sneak under her, but they always get eaten because I catch them before they get on the floor.

Oh! Alright! I will do that when I get the bigger cage!! He seems better than Sunday! He even has put on some weight (if a more tubby belly is any indicator!) I took him outside today (I can't harness per his size, but i held his tail and kept him on my chest!) His colors were awesome! Honestly, I am starting to think he is just lazy, because Bella will do the same thing, just hang out under the basking spot, and suddenly want to dart across the cage. Bella even does the "sexy leg" lol.

But back to Goliath, he is amazing today. So, Keeping him on baby food, and giving crickets until he is 110% When I do both he does better, I didnt do the babyfood Sunday and he did significantly worse. I know there is a risk of him getting spoiled and used to being hand fed, but I will live with that if it keeps him perked up and acting healthy

Thanks to everyone for the help!!

Mine'll bask all day under her hammock and sprawl out. Today, I put a small soft baby's blanket under her hammock. She didn't mind it. Wouldn't go to bed last night until she had her good girl treats after I trimmed her nails.

Aww Is she pretty lazy for the most part? Or is she like all over? I'm starting to think Goliath is just lazy. lol

BDs are lazy by our standards, if you think they are lazy when they are young, wait until it gets older. At times it is an event when they turn their head .

That's funny, I think that is part of why I have been soo nervous! Today, he ran all over my keyboard, and messed up my mouse his tail was on it and it sensed him and me, so my screen kept resizing lol

She's not lazy yet. She's pretty active when she's out of her tank. However, she's chilling out under her basking lamp and UVB bulb. She sprawls out with her sexy legs.

Their usually are active when out of the enclosure for a short period of time until they can find a quiet spot to lay, then pass out . I was talking inside the enclosure where it should be the majority of the time in it's proper environment .

Haha Bella does that, She just finished her first shed!! *sniff* So proud. Lol. She does the sexy led, and she doesn't waste any time when food is in front of her, but Goliath...he needs some coaxing lol. He made my night just now
