Thread: New ornate feeding predicament

    Default New ornate feeding predicament

    Hey guys I've had my ornate for just about a week now. I let him settle in the first day before I even tried feeding him. The very next day i offered him crickets and he took both, but since then he hasn't eaten. He's tried multiple times to catch crickets but misses and gives up and refuses to take them from tongs, so I really don't know what else I can do. He hasn't eaten sinxe the day after I got him. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Maybe you should try feeding him in a separate container so they can't go too far away from him. That also keeps him from eating any substrate accidentally which could cause blockage if he eats too much moss or something.

    Don't get too concerned about his hunger strike, they can go fairly long without eating. From your description, he may benefit from being fed in a separate container, as BossFrog mentioned.
