Margaret:
Well, I bought a small glass "eye" dropper lastnight and fed Sebastian (my
Rhacodactylus Ciliatus) some baby food. He was not thrilled with the process and
squirmed quite a bit. When he finally settled, I gently rubbed a little on his lips,
and he shook his head flinging it on me, but eventually he did begin to lick. He
ended up eating about a whole dropper full, but then he would not take anymore. How
much baby food is normal for him to eat in one meal? How long should I continue to
"hand feed" him? How often should he be eating baby food versus crickets or worms? I
would like to feed him some moths as I saw some of you do from earlier posts, but
where would I get them? I can't really order large quantities of "feeders" from
anywhere as he is the only R. Ciliatus that I have.
Thank you so much for the advice. I truly appreciate each of you on here sharing your
knowledge with others.
