Picky jardini

[aidenb]

So my 3" jar is a very picky eater, only eating bloodworms or crickets and seeing as bloodworms are so low protein, are crickets gutloaded with flake an ok diet at least until it's large enough to be starved onto pellets.

try superworms yet?? more filling than crickets anyways...

u could just force it into eating hik sticks, mine took 2 weeks to change over.

It only 3" long, too small to be starving for that long.

try small earth worms only bad thing if he doesnt grab it right away you have to stick your hand in to retreave the worm and chance scaring him,thats what i did on my small jar he is now 14inchesand now takes shrimp freeze dried krill and sometimes stics but really doesnt like them the hikari sticks i mean.

Live in Canada where the ground is frozen, the only ones I can buy at bait shops are huge nightcrawlers
