no need for live bloodworm. frozen is absolutely fine. stay away for salty and fatty foods like beef and prawns. breaking up carnivore pellets in half is a good way along with the bloodworm and live food as you don't want it to put weight on to quickly as that will kill it.

Brilliant, thanks alot for the help and advice

Well little update, I closed the curtains etc so the tank was in darkness as I was going out for the day, dropped one mealworm in whole and one chopped in half, and a defrosted bloodworm cube, when I came home he has a little fat tummy, not massively, but he HAS eaten SOMETHING, not sure if its bloodworm, or mealworm, but he has eaten so I'm currently over the moon

Sorry about the thread hijack and derail.

guys.

Hes settled in really well but i have a question.

Do the main whiskers/feelers grow back as one is hanging as there is a break in the middle, i dont know what has done it but will it drop off and grow back or what?

 

[oscar n redtail cat]
