Little Daffodil aka Dilly

[phoebe]

She seems to be settling in well and loves her Dubias! For variety I offer her small, tiny superworms in calcium, Rep Cal Pellets for Juvies, dark leafy greens, hibiscus leaves and celery tops, cucumber and carrots in small bites, Nature's Juvie bites (look like worms) and the occasional cricket. (I hate crickets!)

I have also been giving her a warm bath every day so that she stays regular and that seems to be working well. She poops sometimes 2x per day.

Am I feeding her too much? Is there anything I am missing? She is really chill and has been resting on my shoulder when I take her out. Also, when I bathe her I make sure that she drinks by splashing her head/face and nose with water

This is my sweet baby, she was raised on non live food

Thanks and I love the food list from Beautiful Dragons-- Just to be sure she is sweet and docile but has a lot of spunk as well. She loves to run around on my bed and her favorite thing is to poop on the same blanket everytime. WEIRD! I am bit grossed out but that is what comes with being a "mom"

Yea that sounds about right lol time to put a cloth or something to save your blanket or just give it up for pooping station lol
both of mine only go in the bath or when I have them outside.

A bath everyday isn't necessary and could cause respiratory issues. As long as she's eating, she shouldn't have any issues going to the bathroom.

okay thanks

I hope she's not getting too fat! She just had a shed and looking brighter by the day

Thanks! I've had her for about a month and she has grown 2 inches. She needs to grow into her new lounge/bed

Time for a bigger boat LOL
