[QUOTE="Therasoid, post: 47819, member: 3538"] Hello Alex, Good to hear your T is eating well. Leads me to believe its acclimated to the enclosure and you are doing husbandry well. Beware this species has been known for mood swings, prolonged periods of fasting and slow growth rate. I feed mine one prey item at a time and remove the following day if not eaten. 3-4 crickets a month, unless the rump exceeds 1 1/2 times the size of the carapace, then its 2-3 crickets. [emoji6] G. rosea, IMO, have one of the lowest metabolism rates and can be overfed if not careful. [emoji10] Keep up the good work! [/QUOTE]
