I have wax moths!

For some reason, I didn't think they'd be so tiny! Anyway, I chucked a couple in Neelix's cage (I kno they're to be fed sparingly), but he's not interested cos they're not flying. I'm excited to see if he does eat them but they'll probably just hide amongst the leaves
 
Monty has eaten a couple in the past, btu they don't fly up to the light - they flutter around a bit and if they escape they just flutter to the floor and hide uner the nearest piece of furniture! :mad:
 
I think I may have to same problem- I found one very dead and rather squished in the cage- I guess Neelix took a bite and didn't like the taste. The other is hiding at the bottom. but, as with just about everything else you could imagine, the hedgehog will eat them...lol
 
That's about what happened to me - I wanted flying feeders, but they just crawl on the branches and my guys ignore them. I've heard if you hold them by 1 wing they'll flutter and your cham may hand feed, but I've not tried it.
 
My girl loves them! When she notice them fly she is chasing them. It's funny to watch how she tries to catch them while they are flying :)
