Time for an upgrade?...already?

I am pretty sure it is better to feed him in the cage he lives in. They do not like being disturbed after all.

I pull him out when he is fed roaches (lateralis), they are so damn fast and active it is a lot easier to have them contained in a smaller, bare container. It doesn't appear to be stressing him, believe me, I watch, lol...in fact, I would go as far as to say that he recognizes the container as a 'food is here' place, and begins to hunt immediately. He does get grubs and worms in his enclosure in a dish, as well. I'm gentle with him when I remove him from his enclosure, I think perhaps that helps rather than just reaching in and grabbing him.


He has gotten an upgrade...moved into a 20 gal for now, though I'm already working on plans for a larger home when he's ready...I'm excited with new ideas, lol. Here's his new home...



Trying an experiment with that 2.5 gal aquarium as his pool...we'll see if it works out, figured it would be just as easy to siphon up waste products as it is to dump a bowl, plus there's a filter in there now....even a few cabomba plants and guppies, if he eats them, great, if not they'll add a little 'life' in there, lol.
