Question: Newts only eat pellets

[eminem]

Hi. I have two fb newts. I've tried to feed them worms, but they don't like them. One tried once, but gave up, and the other has had no interest for about the 6-7 years I've had them. And, all they've ate has been pellets, but it seems now they will only eat them when they have to. Plus, I heard worms are healthier - so what should I do?

Keep trying. It will take a few days or maybe even weeks to get them to switch foods. You can trying cutting the worm into pieces the same size as the pellets and then drop them in when you drop in the pellets. Pellets aren't a terrible food source so I wouldn't worry about putting forth too much effort to get them to switch.
