Mercutio is doing better now

[Ribbitmethis]

While I haven't seen him eat yet, I have found poop on his favorite resting spot, and haven't found any crickets in the cage. He refused to eat in a separate cage, merely climbing up the walls and sleeping until I took him out, but I have been putting 3 crickets in his cage every other day. He's looking a little chubbier and much more alert. Looks like he's settling in well now!

Poop is good!!! Can't poop unless your eating.
Baby used to sleep all the time and when he got better he was much more alert too. Sounds like Mercutio is heading in the right direction. Yeah Mercutio!!

He ate he ate!!! I didn't feed him yesterday, as I was out of crickets, so after returning home from work and the pet food store I dropped some into his cage which he immediately began hunting! One of them he caught after doing a backflip 1ft in the air off of the "cricket teacup" and onto a pothos leaf directly above him (it was really impressive).

That's great Emilynn. Glad Merc is doing well and eating.

I am so glad to hear he's eating and performing stunts for your amusement. My guys do the funniest things and are constantly trying to get into the light through the glass...over and over and over again or trying to get to the crickets, in the cricket bowl, through the sides, not the quickest to learn are they!. One was hanging from the light for a few hours and I got a pic. I think we'll start training for the next olympics
