I shouldn't think medium locusts would be any problem for him - any smaller than that and he prob wouldn't be interested. Mine hates crickets and isn't fond of roaches - he's a fussy bugger - only likes locusts and morios. I intend to start a land snail colony though so I can feed him some of them.

Yeah i am aware they love GALS but there not that common around here...

I'll put some mediums in with him tonight and see if they are still there in the morning

If he's anything like my sav (who's lazy) they'll still be there first thing in the morning but once you've gone off to work/school/wherever and come back in the afternoon they will be gone Leave some leaves in for the insects to munch on.

Our local stores have plenty of GALS - I seem to remember you can also order them online somewhere too.

yeah i was plannin on puttin some lettuce in for em but they seem to drown in the water lol..

But i have noticed he's sheddin lol

it isnt a daft question for someone that has a new rep who wants to do they best for it, they are allso in no danger of being obese as a hatchling its when they get in to the sub adult stage that you have to be carefull as they become very lazy so they dont work off there fat then you cut down on the feeding to every other day and feed alot more insects than rodents or meaty foods ,
he`ll not eat properly for a couple of weeks while he settles but your see a change in him sooner than you think it is proberly that he`s been used to crix so id go and buy some of them tommorrow

Mine hides away more when he's shedding - buries himself under his cool end hide in the soil.

ah another thing i need to buy for him lol

I thought i had some eco earth but cant seem to find it.... had him on Sand but took him off it today as it was gettin stuck all around his mouth... so for today he's just got a nice big exo terra hide and is on mt tiled bottoms of the viv ( not ideal i know but better than riskin impaction due to the sand )

Just hope shop has eco earth in tomorrow if not will have to go on orchid bark
