[…]in natural diets of many reptiles and amphibians. They contain nutrients not found in insects, and are likely a rich source of calcium. Several species are easy to collect and breed in captivity, but, unlike sowbugs, they rarely attract much attention from hobbyists (please see the article below for information […]
[…]that can be overcome, including frogs, tadpoles, salamanders, small snakes and turtles, fish, insects, snails, crayfish and carrion. They hunt largely by smell, and appear to have chemo-receptive glands along the body – a food item touched by any portion of the body is instantly seized. The Mud Snake […]
[…]and golden shiners. Both are usually raised in outdoor ponds, and have therefore consumed insects and other invertebrates in addition to prepared diets. This may give them a superior nutrition profile. Depending upon the turtle species in question, I offer fish at least once weekly. I also use minnow […]
[…]and other ground-nesting birds, lizards and their eggs, tortoise eggs, locusts and other large insects and carrion. These lizards are well-adapted to a harsh environment in which food is often scarce. They gorge when food is available, consuming up to 50% of their bodyweight, and in some areas eat but […]
[…]far more enthusiastically than are crickets! Please see these articles for tips on collecting insects.

The USA is home to over 120 cricket species; my favorites, the bizarre Mole Crickets, tunnel below-ground with spade-like front legs (please see photo). Over 3,000 species have been described worldwide. New Zealand’s “super cricket”, the Giant Weta, […]
[…]arboreal, they feed on the ground by dropping from their tree-trunk perches to intercept passing insects and small animals. Research has shown that, immediately after dry season fires, the percentage of large invertebrates in the frilled dragons’ diets increases significantly. It seems that the lizards are able to see larger […]
[…]including woodchucks, baby raccoons, flying squirrels and numerous native herps, birds, and insects, and simply could not keep up with the mole’s appetite. Reluctantly, I released the ravenous little beast – I’ve yet to come across another. I also kept another small insectivore, the Short-tailed Shrew. Driven by a […]

I’ve spoken with people who have kept them in seemingly perfect situations, but all wind up frustrated. […]
