I parsed in a comma between geckos and mealworms when I read that, and I was wondering what in the hell, you'd be feeding geckos to! ;-) On second reading, it made a lot more sense. Jeff |

You are my kind of woman. Did you know I was single? ;~) NetMax Nina hehehehe not for long I'm sure! ![]() Might be longer than you think. Not too many ladies on this side of the pond who would chop maggots for their zebras ;~) I have a hard time just selling bloodworms, and they have to freeze their earthworms before they get someone else to chop them up. Have you tried earthworms yet? A little high in fat, so it can't be a regular thing. I think the recipe is as follows: select choice red wigglers, wrap them in wet newspaper for a day (so they can pass what they ate), and then chop into mouth-size pieces. The impression I have of maggots is a larger version of a beetle or small cockroach. There would seem to me to be a lot of indigestible material. Would small crickets be better (just have to figure out how to get them to sink ;~). Other foods of choice might be frozen beefheart, community menu and cichlid delight (occasionally using the one with garlic, to stave off any parasites). I've also heard good things about mysis shrimp. NetMax |

They (sports fishermen) use maggots in the winter, so i decided to try them instead. The Zebras love them, and thrive on them (they do get toher foods as well though) so there must some nutrients in them? Part from the tough skin, which is very thin it loooks very protein rich what's inside them. I wouldn't like to think I put myself through this feeding procedure for no reason :P When the summer comes I'll get some earth worms for them, and thanks for pointing out that I will have to let them get empty first, I wouldn't have thought of that! What's community menu I wonder..? Nina |
