Message: <blockquote data-quote="Greg" data-source="post: 151786" data-attributes="member: 27757"><p>My 4.5" Acanthoscuria geniculata has been ignoring small food.  It doesn't like dubia roaches, and the oldest crickets at my local pet store  (five weeks) which barely get more than 1/2-2/3 inch long, get ignored. Giant mealworm seems to be the only other option in the US.  I see videos of keepers feeding larger sized locusts, but they apparently are not allowed to be bred in the US. Those are likely all UK folks in those videos, where I see locusts available (i.e. from Northhampton).  Any insights into this?</p></blockquote><p></p>
