What sort of feeding regime do you use for yours? |
I had 3 baby V. Albigs raised up in 40 gallon, then into a 4x2 and so on and so forth. You could raise them up in a larger cage but It would be more difficult, in my opinion. If you could, I would suggest putting them in something smaller, get them acclimated and feeding strongly before you put them into a large enclosure like that.
As for feeding, I feed babies as much as they will eat everyday. I alternate between crickets, mealworms, roaches (dusted with calcium supplement) and rodents. As they get larger, I stop offering bugs and give mostly rodents and birds (chicks and quail). And as they get larger, theres not really a set schedule that I go by. In example, my adult pair of V. Albigularis, I feed the male whenever I feel he needs to eat. V. Albig. get obese really easily and need to fed accordingly. I try to feed my female Albig more often because the male always eats her share! PIG!! hahaha...
Cheers,
