ok well ill stick with nightcrawlers! also the one at the pet store near my is pretty big and hes been there for a while definately. id say hes about 3-4 inches in length and hes always fed crickets. if i do get a small one cause theres better colours of em and there healthier at a diffrent store but there small ill probaly figure something else out but nightcrawlers and mice sounds like a good plan! ill also try some other things like the odd feeder fish and thanks a whole bunch for the help! this is one active forum compared to other ones ive looked at so u can garentee im sticking with it!
