Hi

My female leo had a baby this morning. I am just wondering what I can feed the baby. I cant get any live blackworm here in town.

Any suggestions on what else I can feed the baby.


thank you

CONGRATS!!!


I am sorry cant help with that!
 
I wouldn't feed it the first day... give it some time to burn off the rest of the yolk sack. After that chop some earthworms into very small chunks. They'll love that. Small shrimp will work as well.
 
pics and best bet will be chopped up earth worms
 
frozen blood worms too
 
Congratulations!!!!

You can order live blackworms online. Cover the bottom of the pups tank with worms and let them graze at will. You can easily convert them over to earthworms and shrimp within a week or two.
