he will be feeding off the balance of his tail for a few days at least

Springtails would be a great choice for feeding him once he starts to eat solid food. Small enough for the little guy to eat easily.

Springtails are good, but he will probably be big enough to take Drosophila Melanogastor fruit fly

I usually seed the container with springtails, but mine usually will take melano's right off the bat. It probably won't feed for a few days though as stated earlier.

Congrats on the first morph by the way. We'll have to swap out some offspring like we talked about a while back.

hey jubjub i sent you a pm earlier saying the same thing lol. i have two more right behind it. you know how i could never get them to live out side the tank? Now i just place lil cups in the tank and let them raise them i have 3 cups in there. well i pulled one of the three cups out to get the freshly morph out and tonite i went back and now there is a lil tad in the same cup lol that took no time. and all 5 film cans have egg/tads in them and two egg sacks on the glass. there like little rabbits now. i always see two of them i have three but havent seen the third one in a while. i hope she is not dead
