Night crawlers

[Wbarnes8723]

OK thanks! I just got 2 whites last night and I got them some night crawlers. Tried to tong feed a piece to them. They each jumped at a piece but didn't eat it Then I went back to Walmart and get red wigglers just plain earthworms. One of my little guys jumped at it but didn't eat it. Then I felt back because they were hungry and I didn't get crickets.... I hate crickets!

Get roaches, breed easily, no smell.

I thought about that too? Can you suggest a good, easy, cheapest way to get them?

Personally I get them in the mail from LLLReptile and keep them in a dark tupperware bin with mesh over a hole in the top. There are probably cheaper alternatives but I haven't found them. I'm trying to get mine to breed since they're too large for feeding right now, but no luck so far.

Also it's late, but don't get red wrigglers! My frog hated the taste so much he refused to take anything else from the tongs for a while after.
