seems it's a balancing act. I turn it down and it's too low, up and it's too hot. It will take some minor fine tuning to get it right.
The girls still haven't been big eaters. I talked to the previous owner and she said they are used to crickets. So I got everyone some crickets. About 7 each altho Jack and Charlie got 8 cause there were a couple extras and they are bigger so they need more. So far I haven't seen the girls go after them but they aren't used to the noise of the lid yet and they get real startled when I open their tanks. It may be a little while before they come out of hiding. The boys could care less about the sound and go strait for the food. Charlie's stomach is a black hole hahaha.
I'm going to start getting pinkie mice every 2 weeks for Jack. So far I think he likes it. I can't wait for Charlie to get a little bigger so I can give him pinkie mice too. I'd say in another month or 2 I'll try giving him one again to see if he will eat it. It will help curb his appetite so he doesn't have to eat all the time. I gave him about 10 mealworms a day and they are gone the next day. I added some waxworms to see how they like them and he loved them. They are a little fatter. I think he might like some superworms too. But oh my gosh are they big. They creep me out. And I don't think they can be refrigerated to slow their life cycle. Meaning I'd have to get a small amount that wont change before they can be eaten. I've had a bunch of mealworms change lately. Altho it means I get to try my hand at breeding them whoo! http://www.wikihow.com/Raise-and-Breed-Mealworms
I just need bran I guess.
