Feeding schedule

[joseph]

So far, one of the 2 C. orientalis I have has been eating. On caudate culture, it reccomends feeding them 3 time a week as much as they will eat.

After watching one gulp down several bloodworms and 3 earthworm chunks yesterday...I thought he'd be full. I was trying to tempt the other one to eat(that one must be more stressed, and only made a rare half hearted attempt to snap up a piece...and failed of course)this one comes along in and eats several more bloodworms.

Do they know when to stop eating?

Not to sure it makes a difference...but I meant blackworms.

they will eat a ton of blackworms and will eat as much as you will feed them pretty much. i know most places recommend feeding once every 3 days i feed mine 1 time a day but in small portions and they do fine no waste food and they are all healthy and active.
