Do a forum search and that will kick up alot of pig tanks... They will eat just about anything. Little roach, crix, worm, fly, Ect...

A nursery or garden store. Some hardware stores carry it too.

pygmy's are so much fun, I've only had mine since thursday but so far so good. I got a tiny little CB baby so he's just eating fruit flies at the moment, none of the stores around here carry pinhead crix. I have a glass enclosure (pygmy's are apparently the only chams that like these). So far he seems to enjoy it, he's aready wandered around the whole enlosure. Today I saw him acting like a leaf for the fist time, Super CUTE!
