Hi,

I've been keeping record of what I've managed to get Neelix to eat over the past 2 weeks. I've tried offering dubias, locusts, crickets, woodlice but this is what I've managed to get him to eat.

27th Oct 2 2 large silkworms
30th Oct 1 cricket, 1 locust
1st Nov 1 large silkworm
3rd Nov 2 large silkworms
5th Nov 1 large silkworm, 1 morio worm
9th Nov 2 morio worms
Today 1 morio worm, 1 wax worm

His weight was 125g when I weighed him on 6th Nov.

He was refusing to eat anything other than silkworms so I got rid of them. Now he will only eat morios/supers which aren't too good for him- at least the silk worms were healthy.

I've been offering food every day. Should I just not offer him any food at all for 4 days or so then try him on locusts? I'm worried about him.
 
I'm sorry, I know I'm being paranoid & people keep reassuring me that his eating is fine, but he's lost 6g in a week...he's supposed to be growing. Should I take him to a vet? I don't want to lose my Neelix :(
