I've been putting about a dozen or so crickets of various sizes in my baby's (veiled male) viv daily. He has not been eating the mealworms I leave for him altho he did the first couple of days. I'm not finding any dead ones, but some may have escaped. I also offer dusted crickets in a small "dish" for him every other day or so. He sseems to be eating, he's not getting skinnier. How do I know if he's eating or not? If I stay to watch, he hides. I know he's still getting acclimated. Do you all pull off the legs of your crickets, or let them fend for themselves? I'm misting at least 2 times daily and providing a drip as well a couple of times a day. Open air topper on top of a 20 long, lots of plants, real mostly. Zilla vines of different thicknesses. Repti-sun 5.0, 18 inches long on top. The topper is the same size as the tank, effectively doubling the space. Temps vary from 85 to 90 in basking areas and about 70ish below. Humidity at about 75 to 80%. Should I be worried?
