Hey Mentat,
Pekoe is doing well (with the exception of the initial issue) his appetite is good and he is active and alert at night. He even shed last night, though he ate some coco fiber along with the skin.. it was a fair clump.. at least 2 crickets worth, so I was a bit concerned with that, but he still seems to be doing okay at least.
He also seems happy, but as I have not yet started the treatments, I can't comment on the healing of his injuries. I plan on starting treatment tomorrow when I get back from work with the melafix.

I was curious, can I use night crawlers from my back yard, seeing as we do not use chemicals on the lawn, or would that still be unsafe? I read somewhere that night crawlers are less likely to carry harmful parasites.

Also I have been feeding him 4 md-sm crickets a day.. but he ALWAYS seems hungry all day.. should I feed him more per day? He makes me feel like I'm starving him!
